Pause

I love it when a sudden feeling of calm fills my mind with an unexplained joy. It arrives unexpectedly – when you’re quietly standing on a balcony on a bright summer morning, walking past a garden, or  doing absolutely nothing – breaking away from the daily hustle and routine.

When the birds sing in their sweetest melody, when the wind moves with unusual calm, when the days are brighter than usual, and the sky too seems to have rested its pace.

On days like these i like to pause for a bit, seeing the world move around me while I stay still and rooted like a mountain and in that moment, nothing matters but the present, and be it for a split second – life seems purposeful again.

I want that feeling to last. But how can it, when the only place it can call home is hollow?


Still, for a brief moment, everything feels enough. The world keeps moving, yet I remain there – quiet, still, and filled with joy I cannot explain. Those days are rare and I wish they weren’t.
