This evening was a little different. After a busy day, I thought of going to the market and getting some fresh sea fish. But what I saw and felt when I went to the market was not only an echo of mine, but of every middle class person like us.
As soon as you step into the market, you can feel the heat, but it is not of fire, but of the price of every product. These days, the prices of everything in the market are skyrocketing. Starting from rice, pulses to vegetables, prices are rising everywhere. As for us, who are middle class, our lives have now become like a difficult battle. Where the income scale has remained stable, the expenditure scale is constantly increasing.
When I went to buy sea fish, I saw that the prices have increased a lot this week as well compared to last week. Even bargaining with the sellers has now become a kind of mental stress. You cannot tell anyone about your suffering, and it is also becoming difficult to bear it silently.
As you may know, I am a *
diabetic patient. The doctor advised me to avoid fatty meat and eat more seafood and small fish. These sources of protein are no longer a luxury for me, but a necessity to maintain good health. Especially the omega-3 fatty acids in seafood are very important for the body. But due to the current situation, nutritious foods are also going out of reach of the common man.
The market is crowded with countless people, but everyone has the same look of worry on their faces. The days of going to the market with bags full of bags seem to be gone. The middle-class people cannot reach out to anyone, nor can they explain their lack to anyone. We just try to make ends meet by cutting corners in our accounts.
On the way back from buying fish, I felt that if this unbridled horse of commodity prices does not stop, the lives of ordinary people like us will become even more miserable. We need good food to stay healthy, but will we be able to afford to buy that food until the end?
Finally, I pray that this market instability will return to normal soon and that ordinary people like us can live with dignity by eating at least two handfuls of nutritious food.
This was my arrangement for today. I hope you liked the pictures I took and the nature observations. Wishing everyone good health, I bid you farewell here today.
