I had a dry, barren balcony used for my clothes stand.Sometimes we chilled out there, but rarely.
Yes, we did enjoy the sight of the cloudy skies, the setting sun, the birds and animals in the trees on the next compound.
And then we planted some trees. And we found an entire ecosystem emerging around us.Used to screaming at the mere thought of seeing them, it was surprising how we all were more fascinated than averse when we saw their diligence in building their nest and protecting their little ones.
