The smell of fresh cut grass, the sound of the wind rustling and the feeling of gentle breeze brushing across my face. I found my "heaven" in school.It's just a quite place in the sun just outside of Computer Lab 4, the place where I usually conduct my lesson. Everyday I pass by it, but it didn't matter much until today. While waiting for students to come, I walked over the "heaven" to get some sun. For the first time I look far and across, it was a beautiful sight. Though it's not as magnificent as those mountain views, lake views and whatever views; but the best view in school. Open green field, only a few high rise in sight, sometimes I see people/animals strolling by the park connector, nice air (even though it's quite near the road).
I went up to get more sun and do some reading after lunch. Nice afternoon sun and the quietness around made it perfect for reading and quiet time.
Being in "heaven" reminded me so much of the time I spend on Logos II's deck. I remember once while we were in Kiel, it was a sunny day and it was warm enough to not wear a jacket to go out. After white house duty, I went to bridge deck to do some reading and enjoy the rare, warm sun. It was really beautiful just sitting by the deck with the Bible in hand, legs up on the chair, facing the sea and enjoying the breeze. It wasn't long before I fell asleep. Thank goodness Frauke came and woke me up; else my sun tan would have gotten darker. Yes, I actually got sun tanned during autumn in Kiel! Frauke and I talked awhile before going for dinner. I remembered it was a wonderful day. The whole day was sunny and warm.
Ahhh... I like this kind of summer feeling.
I guess I would be spending more time in "heaven" then stuck in the air-conditioned lab.
