Mango culture of India

Mango in Urdu is Called Aam Which generally means common. Mango is So
Common in India that is it called Aam. (by the way it is not root Of
the word.) and then you may surely Say a common Indian man to be a
mango-man (Aam admi)...ha ha..ha...
It is Of those times when I was Just ten and none Of the mango trees
beard fruit in our garden when I was in my Village. And except ours,
each Of the garden had a large number Of fruit. me with my friend
roamed all around different gardens to get unripe mangoes we First
picked hanging one ourselves and would Say to the boy guarding it
"...kya haal hai dost, Subah se baithe baithe thak gaya hoga..chal Aam
Khate hain. bol kaunsa todun?.." (wassup friend? You would be tired
Sitting here Since morning Come-on Lets have Some mango...so, which
one Should I pluck?) and then we would have a good feast. One of my
friend always Carried Common salt with him for the purpose. Because
unripe mangoes tastes great with Salt. And another year when we had
ourselves huge bearing, I would always accompany my gramma to check if
they were ready. When all of the mangoes on all 34 trees were taken
down they are divided into three equal numbers. One for the poor,
another for the guard and one part was ours. the other morning all
family members comes together many of the mangoes are dipped into
water and everybody enjoys. Even the poor who got their share. Since
Islam teaches us to giveaway.
But now we had moved to city to study and earn and there lives our old
ailing diabetic granma who now gives away even her own Share to the
poor. Now there lives Just memories of those golden days and all we
Could do is to go to the mango festival at delhi haat, and buy Some
mangoes.
This is our culture, This is India's culture- the mango culture and
we love it.
