How would it feel to have no responsibilities? How would it feel to be able to speak exactly what comes to our minds? How would it feel to do just what we want to do? Instead of trying to please the family, spouse, kids, parents, how would it feel to please just you? What would you do if you get a day all for yourself? Read, cook, dance, go trekking, catch up with friends, go for a movie?
How about a solitary picnic by a brook or a stream? With a picnic basket? Some books to read. A couple of Jane Austens or PG Wodehouse. Even Lord of the Rings would do. A perfect setting to read something fantastic. To get lost in the romances of Emma or Lizzy Bennet and Mr. Darcy and living their predicaments…..admiring the restraint and patience of Mr. Knightley’s feelings while waiting for Emma to realize her love for him….These books have been read many times but still the romance that they evoke creates a new magic with every reading.
A nice nap in the afternoon by the tree on the soft grass….waking up to the silent shadows of the evenings….a nice hot cup of tea and I am ready to head home.
