Tasting and being in touch

Have you ever feel like that you've done so much and maybe alittle too much for you to handle..

Have you wish you could just sit on a hill and watch the world passes by.. (This reminds me of a song "The fool on the hill" by The Beatles)

Have you just hope to be in peace with yourself before moving onwards to anything else..

Well...

I'm feeling all the above now. 

Listening to ukulele mix of Beatles..aww.. Beatles.. the magic of their song never wear off. 

It eases my mind alittle and return me to that light feather that floats with the wind. 

Or maybe it's those muscle relaxant tablets that I took. It's such a pity that I have problem relaxing myself that I have to resort to tablet to slow down my mind and let me be alittle more comfortable with myself and what I'm doing. It's the year end. But in no way it feels like it. Because somehow I'm already in 2012 already. I feel as if I skipped the new year. I skipped the joy of Christmas, busy planning whatever needs to be done and filling up dates to meet deadline. 

I have my music on every moment I travel to and fro work. But never have I listen to music in such a manner for a long time. Really simply listening to the lyrics and each melody play by each instrument. Each string, each notes..makes me smile. Bring me to a happy land. A land where it is alright to just simply be who you are and do what you feel and believe. 

It's a shame I only realise that music has somehow been just a form of escapade for me and not really being appreciated like a glass of wine or a pint of fruity foamy ice cold beer.

Suddenly I get it why do those black and white oldies films always seems to show someone sitting by a bar or a gramophone doing nothing but smoking cigar or sipping wine so so slowly..

They are tasting the music. Tasting the moment as the smoke gathers in a little ball rolling in the air. 

*suddenly realise its been a year since the last time I been to roomful. How time flies while you are busy making ends meet. Why do designer tend to smoke weeds..well thanks to media and profit making machines..everything is about speed. Designers just got rolled over and over projects..and so often it's not because they are drained of ideas. It's simply because their mind is pushed so fast that they need some weeds to reduce those speed. To hear their heart beats again. To do a little tap dance.

Love how he skip and hop..on the hill...and those silly grin...makes me feel thankful to be able to listen to this beautiful music and be in touch once again..
