Whenever I am stressed out at work or at home.... I try to mentally get out of that situation by taking a walk in the woods......I dont know why, but sometimes imaginations run riot. My woods look like this...
A narrow winding pathway covered with trees on both sides. The leaves of the trees are in colors of autums.. green red yellow with flowers and leaves strewn all over the pathway. There is no one around and I am the only person walking there. The only sound is the sound of my footsteps that goes "charrak charrak". There is a pleasant breeze that smoothes over my face. A faraway bird chirps mildly occassionally.
A thick wooden fence runs behind the trees on both sides and there is a huge lawn that spreads beyond the fence. The whole place smells of wet earth, especially that of first rain on earth. Streaks of mild sunshine peep through the gaps in the trees and makes the fallen leaves and flowers shimmer.
The sky is blue with shades of grey here and there, scaring that it might rain anytime. But it has never rained so far. I really cant figure out what time of the day it is but it feels good to be there. The world is so peaceful and so beautiful.
Moving ahead, there is a small creek that runs beside the trees on one side. It makes a klukkluk sound and sizzles across. The water is transparent and I can see golden and blue pebbles beneath the water.
There is a faraway mountain, a combination of white and grey clouds kissing it.
A walk here not only relieves stress but also makes me come back fresh and rejuvenated. Wish there was a real wood like this where I can take walk real time....
