It's as if nature gets a new life right after the rain. The dust in the wind washes away all the dust and sand, and the surrounding area becomes as clean as a mirror, and the sweet smell of the earth fills the mind with a strange peace. It's impossible to stay indoors on such a balmy afternoon! So, as soon as the rain stopped, I took my bike out to enjoy this refreshing form of nature.
Picture-perfect road and the beginning of the journey
When I rode my bike onto the empty, muddy rural road, the green leaves of the huge trees around me seemed to welcome me. The sight of the fresh green trees on both sides of the muddy, dark road soaked in rain was very soothing to the eyes. The feeling of riding a bike along such a quiet, deserted road is different, where there is no mechanical noise, only the chirping of birds and the sound of the wind.
The calm form of the river and the simple lesson of life
After going a little way, I came across a calm river. The floating leaves on the riverbed and the faint glow of the setting sun in the distance created a magical atmosphere. On one side of the river, I saw a flock of domestic ducks swimming to their hearts content. Seeing this scene, I stopped my bike and stood for a while. In our urban or busy lives, we are always worried about so many things, but there is no rush between this flock of ducks or the calm stream of the river. Nature teaches us - life should be taken easily, everything flows beautifully in its own way with time.
Childhood excitement and muddy football
As I rode my bike a little further, my eyes caught sight of a village field. A group of teenagers were playing football barefoot and happily on a muddy field! None of them had boots on their feet, nor were they wearing expensive jerseys, but the smiles on their faces and the concentration on the game could not be found even in the best stadiums in the world. This scene taught me a great lesson. True happiness does not depend on expensive arrangements; happiness is hidden in small moments and togetherness. Seeing them reminded me of my childhood that I had left behind.
The vast green horizon and the flowers of the kachuripana
The most beautiful canvas of nature was waiting for me at the end of the journey. The vast green fields of crops under the cloudy sky. And amidst that greenery, thousands of light purple kachuripana flowers bloomed! We usually know kachuripana as a weed, but when that weed blooms in groups, it can rival any expensive garden. This beauty made me think that nothing in the world is trivial. Everything has its own beauty and value at the right time and environment.
Last words
This short bike ride after the rain not only relaxed my eyes, but also refreshed my mind greatly. This silent language of nature, the excitement of children and the calm flow of the river taught me to think anew. Sometimes we all should take such a small break from the busyness of mechanical life.
