The evening.

A good Friday evening must be spent outside under the beautiful twilight and cool wind. Although I have to go back in to finish things up at the lab soon, being able to take a breather like this is like a blessing to me. With a good music in my ear, the wind caressing my mind, and the veil of twilight spreading across the sky in clearest blue and most subtle shades of red and violet, the day's stress seem to just melt away.

I think I just saw a firefly disappearing into the bushes. The summer really is here.

For some strange reason, I find it that I think and concentrate best in natural settings, like a garden in twilight, or a long walk through a forest. It is much easier to calm my nerves and come up with new things in such settings, and I must say that being able to do so really saved my hide in more than a few occasions. Is it psychological? If that is so, we are wasting away tremendous amount of time and men/womenpower shoving them into little partitions and welfare housing.

The world I see in front of me is far too beautiful to contemplate those matters however. For today, I will leave them be.

It's been a while since I wrote something like this. And recently I haven't been getting any time to write anything longer/deeper than this, which is a bit of concern for me.
