At the foot of a mountain

If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be?

Pabbar Valley Himachal Pradesh

The cold winds would feel uncomfortable,

But not like the choking smoke of the cities.

The fresh air would make you shiver,

But not like the hate that would bruise your heart.

A place far away in the wilderness,

Where the nature feels so pure,

Where everything rides on their soul,

Where the cool breeze sings the song of love.

A place at the foot of a mountain,

Or inside a dense green forest.

Any place far away from chaos,

A true home where you find your purpose.

    It makes me want to step out, feel the air, and find that wilderness where my own spirit can pause and expand.

      Humans evolved from wilderness, our hearts are attached to that place… unknowingly, deep down we crave for that place, our true home…thank you for your kind words
