Singapore
On the flight to Singapore, one of the things I’ve notice that I never did before was the simple awe that struck me when I saw the clouds. Imagine tufts of cotton with light seemingly emanating from within. I know that the radiance of the clouds is caused by the suns reflections. However, the beauty of the clouds from that vantage point was just majestic. It was as if a bomb was set off and time was set a stand still.
Rolling mounds of pure white only defaced by its own shadows with the radiance of the heavens pouring forth from its very core. As far as my eye could see, just mountains of pure white as if God has given us a glimpse of heaven. Though these reflections of simple perfection seem to solidify grace and beauty, we pass through it with no evidence of disturbance. It was as if perfection can never be touched by us mere humans.
This epiphany of beauty transcends all the beauty that has graced my presence with my feet on the ground. Flying is a high on its own. To reflect on such beauty and serenity leaves one with a sense of peace and tranquility as the plane passes hill by hill of subtle perfection.
What has been the most memorable part of this trip been thus far? The trip getting to my destination. Like I said, it’s not about the people you meet or the things you do. It’s the way you experience things that matter. The best thing about it was the mere simplicity of enjoying what is around us. Somehow, the most mundane act of looking out the window can throw into action a world of possibilities. Let your imagination take the trip with you and I guarantee a lifetime of memories that are like no other.
I’m still in Singapore as I write this and it seems that this trip has yet to show me what else lies in wait. You can’t help but wonder what other beauties lie beyond our reach. This is the question that hangs me by the seat of my chair yet leaves me smiling knowing that I have just experienced a small sliver of such blissful perfection.
What else lies in wait? I can only hope to see more things that inspire such intrepid eloquence. All along I thought that my muse for my recent diatribe of emotions would be by way of a woman. Oh how wrong I have been. There really is more to this life than what we give it credit for. Whatever that may be is up to each of us to find out.
