That night bus ride...

Night. The long bus ride to Thailand was a back-breaking and body-aching experience, but kind of refreshing for the soul. While everything was quiet and everyone else asleep, I was wide-awake and enjoying the night.

Gazed up into the dark sky. Sometimes cloudy, occasionally clear. Second day after the full moon, the heavenly planet looking absolutely radiant, a mysterious aura surrounding her - enchanting and beautiful.

Rode pass some plain, barren fields. With the moon and stars providing some quiet, eerie light. A slight mist rose over the fields, hovering and dancing above it. The sight was simply captivating. A hauntingly, beautiful feeling about it...

Even without the artificial lights to light up the world, everything seemed so bright. All we need are the moon and stars above, to illuminate the world and bring forth this spell-bounding night...


"Lights - so beautiful, only because of darkness..."
