a dream...

There are days... well, like today.

Where I put Diana Krall - Narrow Daylight on repeat. And draw. I find comfort in that, strange huh? Comfort from what, I don't know. I just find it oddly, peaceful. When I hold up my sketchbook and pen... I imagine myself to be sitting on a park bench in the shade of a tree, which does not necessarily have to be big and old. Just shady. And facing an old church... while the soft breeze hurries the leaves along the path. Softly. Gently. The sun is kind, air is cold. A good cuppa mocha beside me. I sketch. Isn't it lovely? I just love it, for some strange reason.

The same goes to... waking up in the morning. My ideal way of waking up is, to the sound of waves. Smell of salt on the wind the sea carries in its morning tide. The call of birds overhead. The feel of wood beneath my feet as I step out of bed, and out onto the balcony. Laze on the deck chair, with the morning papers and again, a good cuppa mocha. Great way to start the day huh? Well, if I started my day everyday that way, I'd never make it to work actually.

Or...

Coming home from a long day of work, to a cosy cottage. A long bath in the tub... with some lavender scented candles, some Diana Krall. Then proceeding to settle in a good ol' rocking chair. A fireplace to warm the room. A warm blanket (assuming this is somewhere cold, of course). A good cuppa mocha. And my favourite book :) And Diana Krall sings... "Winter is over, Summer is near... Are we stronger, than we believe"

I might have been an English in my previous life. Definitely a romantic. Most probably not an Asian. Might have been overall more mellow too. Just simple. I love it :)
