that one perfect moment

lovely11Wednesday I wonder. Have you ever exprienced a perfect moment in your life? You know, like things just fall into place – as you want it, exactly?

I’m not sure if this corner is still my favorite corner in our home. I don’t spend time here as much as I used to when we first moved back in.  Some time back, I remember sitting at this corner feeling just right, in other words, perfect.  Mid-day, no music or TV turned on, it  was one quiet afternoon.  From where I was sitting, I saw my neighbor preparing something in his kitchen, possibly lunch but was making minimal noise. The stacks of laundered garments to be folded sitting next to me was not a bother. The moment was magical in a sense that at that very instant, the feeling was just right – the right level of noise coming in from the neighborhood, the right level of quietness from within and outside, the weather was perfect – not humid and stuffy as how it could get sometimes. It was just a harmonious surrounding. My mind was so relaxed as I closed my eyes,  so much so that it brought me …. to places I would love to visit and re-visit, cultures I would love to comprehend, people I would love to interact, lifestyle I would love to discover, things I would love to do and enjoy…

I liked what and where that  magical moment experience brought me - such harmonious feelings.
