Serenity
After an intial bout of tumultuous upheaval in emotions, the time to settle back to the former Zen-like state has arrived. Once more, the feeling of familiarity has returned with the genuine smiles and the warm handshakes exchanged upon reunion. Although the heart still yearns for something faraway, it is content and has begun slowly merging into its surroundings.Today, overwhelmed by a sudden burst of energy and persuaded by an intransigeant group of
athletic mates, I bravely defied the logic that one should not run after a hearty meal (dinner in this case). We started at the foot of the hill and began the arduous journey to the peak with the cool, light summer breeze blowing. The scenery that captivated our eyes as we made our way to the summit was picturesque.
Yet, a bigger reward laid in waiting. The magical moment of the sunset greeted us as we made it to the top. Perfect. What a moment to savour... Some days, you cannot help but think, it is good to be back...
Funny enough, my return has also rekindled a fondness to play music from the era of 1960s-1970s where bands such as The Mamas and Papas and Rooftop Singers have given us ageless classics to soothe and unwind. Well, I am equally clueless about the resurgence of this musical genre in my aural choice but I deem this to the Forrest Gump flashbacks...
