Ganesan grew up in a carefree environment. The village activities demanded buzy schedules for oneself,for the animals at home,for the agricultural works.For exampleone has to get up at 0430hrs in the morning clean up himself,take the bulls to the field,plough the field till the fields assistants come and take over,return home ,milk the cows,get ready to school, start running 5km and reach school by 0900hrs.Even though number of people and brother sisters are at home no one dictates what is to be done and it is clear understanding of the daily routine. The physical activities of the village by force keep the youngsters healthy and energetic as the life there was survival of the fittest.Injury,danger to life due to animals, flood, fire, etc were co-existing and growing up under that environment makes one absolute carefree.Ganesan flew off from the village with that spirit.
