Solitude

I've always been a person who enjoys and values my solitude.

Even more so now, I guess, after experiencing all the dramas, chaos and craziness for the past few months.

Nowadays, I'm happy and grateful to just be able to wake up to a serene morning with the lovely sound of birds chirping in my garden.

Then I step into the quiet kitchen to make myself a cup of piping hot tea, and sit down in my cosy lounge to enjoy a day of doing absolutely nothing.

Or anything.

A good book. A nice movie. A pleasant phone conversation. A splurge of online shopping. A relaxing long bath.

Peace and serenity.

Something that we take for granted so often and way too easily, but a luxury to some.

And today, I'm feeling luxurious. :)
