When childhood leaves us, it seems the sun
abandons us as well. All these sunny afternoons just don’t exist no more as we
spend our days in cubicles and office rooms, sometimes having even no windows
to see the world outside. Walking around the streets with the high sun feels
almost strange, as this becomes a feeling reserved for weekends.
Fortunately, I had my chance to find a nice
resting place during the lunch break. The sun was warm and the tree I was
resting under had a very fresh shadow. The bark of the tree and the grass were
almost moistened. The wind was pushing through the leaves of the trees and the
patches of sunlight on the ground were never still, like a multitude of kids
running and playing and pushing and laughing with their infant energy.
In this moment, I could enjoy the distancing
from wordly problems. No awkward confrontations, no issues that can’t be
resolved, no peer pressure or getting worried about things I feel I can’t do.
Right now, I wouldn’t think about absolutely anything that could take this
valuable peace from me, and this moment recharges me for some more hours.
