When my daughter and i left the house to her school this morning, it was around 7 and i had to use the headlights as it was a heavenly misty morning... how Kroh a.k.a Pengkalan Huly(my hometown)used to be like every morning some 30 years ago. Since they cut down the trees and modernisation moved in, the weather has become much hotter and the morning mist almost an occasion.
So i quickly sent my daughter to school and left the car in the house and went for a walk by the lake. Forgot to take my cam, but i loaded something quite similar. It was heavenly, divine. What other words can i use! The mist wafting acrossr the lake surface, the surreal silhouette of pine trees, the shimmering crystal like dews at the tips of grasses , the mysterious silence when u know everything is alive, the refreshing chill in the air.... the whole ambience that only nature can created.
I jus sat on a bench by the lake under a tree i guess must be 50 years old and jus let myself go. Jus for a moment, i almost had an out of body experience as i felt my whole being absorbed by the surroundings. No worries, no problems.. only a feeling of being graced by nature's magnificient pervading presence and a sense of gratitude for the whole universe.
I felt my arms reach for the sky as though embracing some invisible but benign force.. . compassionate, ... eternal. Is that God.. i still question. But i was not going to spoil the moments by complicated thoughts.
Yea, simple thoughts.. be in the present. That's all mattered. That's all should. And I'm thankful for that. I am alive and feeling GREAT! All these priceless gifts were there for taking.. Now!
For past is past and future is not here yet.
