The Seekers



Roses Roses all the way, the town is famous for export of roses especially during Valentine's Day!













Some things are worth waiting for!
So it was with the weekend that went by. 

Many misses, many nays, many let's do it, before it finally happened.

Everyone loves a day away from routine, a day to unwind as we have taken to call it.
I look forward to such moments especially when it involves time with friends. 

"Let's go to the farm" a constant invite, " Bring your kids along" the deterrent!

With so many dependencies to manage, it never did happen.
Finally, a decision and a date blocked weeks in advance.

Planning is not my friend's forte, which though a little unnerving initially, I have learnt to accept. I know I've had the best times with him! 

We constantly seek peace, answers to the daily problems we face at work, relationships, money, health, future. Leaving behind a chaotic mind.
The wide open spaces gives you the answers.

There is nothing more beautiful than nature in its raw form.
No pretensions, no one-upmaniship, no greed.
It teaches you respect, gives you plenty. 

The green countryside, gentle breeze rustling through the weeds and the leaves, the playful clucking of fowls, the eerie sounds of the night. 
Calmness, silence, stars, fond melodies from afar.
Chatter of friends. 

Quiet of the morning, the hues of the skies, the mooing cows in the distance. Tea.
Walks through villages, birds, goats, ducks, smiles. Laughter! 

Rejuvenation. Peace!
