TIME TO CATCH UP WITH TIME?

Just back from good ol' Bali....It's still as lovely as when I first set foot on her back in '93....The familiar "charcoal" scented air and, especially, the beautiful sight of her sunset view will always remain etched in my mind. What's most memorable, as I watched from some distance away, was the sight of regular beachbums and visitors playing, alongside eachother, soccer, on the receding tide's wet sand, with the sun slowing sinking into the horizon, whilst the wet beach reflect it's orange rays....Nevertheless, '93 or '08, the same sight, the same scent, the same scene, makes me wonder if time stands still only for her, majestic Bali.

Speechless I was, all I could wish for at that point in time, was for someone to share the warmth of the sunset and understand that same awe I felt within. No need for talk, you already know how I feel inside, just by listening to the pace of my breath. Nothing could interrupt my moment of "One-ness".....With you.

Let's hope time forgets to catch up with her and leave her be, to be young forever...As you will always be, in me, when we catch up again in good ol' Bali.
