Journeys are beautiful.

Calming, subtle, silently running along like a film on your window frame.

Different scenes painting  the road side,

living for a short while and before you realize..gone.

You sit back,

listen to your favourite songs and

watch out for what life portrays next.

A guitar strum,

a hidden harmony,

and the vivid tabla echoes..

that which otherwise would have been drowned

by routine.

Gentle wind brushes against your hair,

you feel light,

empty

and happy

just being..

yourself.
