Desert

Why do I love this desert road so much.. when others always found it dull? Is it the endless stretch of silence.. or the countless grains of sand each holding a secret story? Is it the gentle reminder that I’m just a small part of nature’s unmatched design? Or the quiet hope the desert carries.. waiting for rain? Or is it the realisation that where I thought I belonged was never the truth.. and that real belonging is learning to embrace new changes that bring me joy? I never thought this dry, sun scorched land could bring me such peace.. inspiring me to write.. especially when my heart belongs to the rain!
