Otherwise Unnoticeable Details
The clock stops ticking as the harmonious humming in life is suddenly absorbed by a vast, serene silence. The sound of typing also disappears. I shut off the dripping sink and somehow, manage to notice the sparkling surface of the crystal-clear water droplets. Minute details of life, never noticed before, are abruptly brought to my attention with the coming of complete silence. The cars outside my tinted window may be honking, perhaps police sirens screaming. None of it matters anymore; for the clock has stopped ticking.
Spring arrives upon us again. I can imagine seeing the delicate cherry blossoms bloom under beautiful blue skies. I wish I could walk out and enjoy the beauties of nature, for all I can see is a hued sheet of darkness. As I slide open my balcony door, I can smell the sweetness of the blooming flowers, hear the pleasing songs of the seagulls, and feel the warm, embraceable sunshine on my arms. Spring has come, my senses tell me.

Hi,
Nice blog. Exchange links?
Beautifully expressed. So very true. These are some of the most unnoticeable moments of life yet so much true. All you need is a little peace ….something more than silence.
