Lately I have an autonomous
girlfriend staying in one of the cities in the country. She is a very gorgeous in
her early twenties trailing my age by a good three years. Surprisingly, she has
accomplished her education and now working with one of the gratifying
international NGOs whilst I am still working on my education despite that I was
born before her. Very last week, I spent a forgettable and memorable night at
her compund and amuzingly I was in such a puzzle realizing that she owns a lovely and astoning home
since this was my first time to visit her home.
Immitating the Romeo
and Juliet scene, we had a perfect breakfast in a unique romantic atmosphere.
The four walls painted in a stunning mural picturing portraying the countryside
in which my lovely queen grew since her childhood. As a cultural preservative
mechanism, during her holidays, this astonishing lady was deliberately sent to
the village where her mother was intuitive so that she grew appreciating a parish
life – What a paradise I found within this woman and never mind seeking to know her as I am scared to end up loosing my angel –
kikikiki(laughing)…
Imagine a countryside which depicts the fresco in a panorama of rolling hills,
gentle valleys, and singing streams, the latter clean and sun-speckled, and
babbling over rocks. Winding roads meander through pleasant meadows. Little
houses dot the landscape. In a central position is a white church surmounted by
a tall steeple. Some of you must have deciphered where exactly this place might
be.Ofcourse Yes, somewhere along the shores of our beautiful lake. What a
beauty monopoly such a beautiful lady coming from.
As we breakfasted, my better
half talked of this other expanse of her youth, singling out various points of curiosity
in the frieze. Then she whispered “habitually, as I park myself in this
dining-room, I set out from spot to spot in reminiscence and relive of those days.
In paradigm walking up that way as a girl with nude feet imminent from a
water-fetching charge. In memory yet how the clean dust felt between my toes. I
learn by heart coasting down those hills in winter to get a hold of firewood. Wait
a minute, I recall learning how to swim in that trout stream on numerous summer
afternoon.” She cultivated her past adding flavor to the breakfast we were
having. The narration itself was so magnetic that I was feeling my presence in
her past. It was thrillingly attractive!
Paused in a puzzle,
with a folk still held in my hand exclusive of realization as my attentiveness
became passively diverted to her annotations. “That is the church I used to attend
as a mummies little girl.” She grinned while pointing in the middle of
the mural where the church was situated and alleged, “I sat through many long sermons
in that church but gratefully evoke to my psyche the thoughtfulness of the
people and the earnestness of their lives. I can sit here and look at that minster
and imagine of the hymns I once heard with my grandmother and grandfather sitt ing
together in the pew who are now buried
in that cemetery flanking the church, but in mind, I go and stand by their
graves and hear them speak to me as in days gone by.” For the first occasion,
a somber ambiance wrapped the room, but she was speedy enough to dismiss the
dismal frame of mind with a cute smile that exuded onto my heart. Her smile almost
freezed me! “I got very tired, sometimes am nervous and tense. When I argue
with you to the level that I am frustrated, it helps me to sit here and go back
to the days when I had an untroubled mind, when life was new and fresh. It does
something for me. It gives me peace” She continued dispassionately. On that exposure,
I promised within myself never to upset her any longer. I love her so much!
Perchance we all cannot
have such murals on the dining-room walls, but you can put them around the
walls of your mind.Depict the most fine-looking experiences of your life. Spend
time among the thought these pictures suggest. No matter how busy you may be or
what errands you may clutch, this effortless rather unique perform, having
proved successful in many occurrence, may have a beneficial effect upon you. It
is an easily practiced easy way to peaceful mind.
To me while inscripting
these words,in a jovial mood, sitting on a river bank of one of the most attractive
nature-laden villages in Malawi that ensue
to be part of me.Here I am, session on a famed romantic rock along the river
bank. Turning my head ninety degrees clockwise, seeing an innate garden filled
with graceful palm trees, roses, swaying in the balmy breeze. The air is laden
with the aroma of exotic flowers-Hibiscus in nature of which in my village is a
considerable variety. This is a 5-hactare garden established by a nature
conservation trust operating in this and other surrounding villages.
Rotating another ninety
degrees of my head from its rest position anti clockwise this time, I see “papaya” (pawpaw) trees laden with
ripening fruits, extending their zone until running adjacent to the palm yard
section. It is a scenario of a rare village in this age of environmental
depletion. If you want to live in the past, when nature was plenty, try to give
this place a visit. The brilliant color of royal poinciana and the fame of
forest tree, add to the glamour of the scene. The incredible blue and calm
water defined by the still skies and the gentle gradient of this section of the
river course mesmerizes my pre-summer experience. I have come here to have a
dose of silence franked with nature-propelled beautiful scenery. Yes, this
village is the best!
Altogether, it is a
scene of entrancing beauty. It has an indescribably healing effect upon me as I
sit here writing about the power generated in a peaceful mind working in a
peaceful environment embraced in nature. The insistent responsibilities under
which I ordinarily live seem so far away. Though I am in this village on a
particular mission other than relaxing at this amazing place, nevertheless the
peace with which this place is filled envelopes me. Yet I realize that when I
have returned to my base in the city, some great deal of distance away, I shall
only then truly savor the exquisite joy of the beauty which I now behold. It
will become enshrined in memory as a prized retreat to which my mind can go in
the busy days that lie ahead. I love this place just as I love my wonderful and
beautiful girlfriend and all people that I am connected with.
