After a nice shower and a brunch, I now sit on my patio floor. It is a beautiful, beautiful spring day. Just below me there is the lawn of my complex. Two dandelions smile brightly in the sunlight. Gentle winds flow through the grass and the trees alike. The grass is well mowed. It feels as if someone has spread a soft green carpet in my yard. It looks calm, but as I look closely I find a lot of activity. With every wave of wind, the blades swing here and there, sometimes wildly. There are a few trees in my sight. A huge one to my right. Their barks look old. Spring has brought new leaves and young branches. They dance to the winds, with no particular movement and yet, they appear to move in a rthym.
The surroundings are abuzz with the birds chirping loudly. Blue sky streches over, with a flew clouds scattered in the sky here and there, and over the mountains. The mountains appear hazy in the brightness. Occassionally a car passes by. A few birds walk on the road, searching for food, and a bee buzzes near me, rushing madly. What makes this day full of life, is perhaps all these things happening together. I find it a luxury to be able to sit silently in this environment. Friends, family, my home, all kinds of memories waft in my thoughts, like the clouds in the sky. I am going to take my bike out now, go fill air in my tyres, and take ride on the boulder creek path. After that, it will be time for tennis.
