Sanctuary
My life has been so blessed ever since I embraced my wanderlust spirit. In the midst of chaos, I have learnt to seek solace in nature, literature, or art. My soul connects with eternal beauty, drifting far away, seeking truths within these dreamscapes.
Yesterday, I felt such a stirring when I ventured out into the Lauterbrunnen valley in Switzerland. As the train swirled into this mystical landscape, I felt like I was treading into a timeless realm I could only have envisioned from a fairy tale.
It was a misty day but I could see as far as my eyes could take me: rows of majestic mountains covered with verdant evergreens, cozy wooden chalets adorned with cascading blooms, and dainty wildflowers scattered across alpine meadows. Glacial waterfalls gushed from steep mountaintops, etching swirling rivers. I breathed in the peacefulness.
For the first time in my life, I felt my soul shudder with recognition, as if this splendorous place has once been my home, some day long ago when tales were first woven. It made me wonder: perhaps every person has a sanctuary here on Earth, a place where the soul awakens to the beautiful possibilities of life. A place where you can dream forever.
My life may not be perfect, but I collect these perfect moments like treasures to retreat into whenever I need to smile.
