Orlando is a paradise in spring

While waiting for the train at this little station in downtown Chicago, I tumbled down a rabbit hole of thoughts and found myself riding an imaginary train in the North Pole. Too bad the real train woke me up 😅

If you can take a train to a place of your choosing, where would you go?!!

Our first stop during winter trip was Blue Ridge Parkway. BRP is a 550 miles long mountain road which starts at the Shenandoah National Park, Virginia and end in the Smoky Mountains National Park, North Carolina. In other words, it’s the slowest but beautiful road to take you from Tennessee to Virginia. We had already completed the North Carolina part in summers, so decided to take this route towards Virginia. It offers stunning views, and the sunset was mesmerizing.

It’s been a long time since we have visited the national park. Graduate studies are stressful and taking small breaks to refresh our energy means a huge deal especially during fall season, when the semester is about to end, and the parks are starting to feel depressing. You know what this means? It is time to plan for warmer places, the sand, and the beach. Who wants to host us?

‘Chasing the dream’

Hello to the beautiful autumn. I can close my eyes and feel the traditional fall colors in the East Tennessee, the swooshing wind and the spooky evenings many of which have passed by already and won’t wait for me to get up from my wheelchair.
It’s been only five days since my surgery but it feels like forever. The bed I lay down upon everyday is feeling tired, the mattress is so worn for trying to breathe through my longest ever ass print. I could feel it, I could hear it telling me to get off and give it some break, Aah I wish I could my friend, I hear you, but so I hear the constant screaming of my reconstructed knee, constantly telling me to give it some more comfort. It’s becoming a spoiled child really, no matter how hard I try, it never gets enough rest.
Maybe that’s what my wife thinks of me too, a spoiled child who never gets enough of her care, no matter how hard she tries, there’s always some pending task ahead of her. Aah aren’t we all in a closed loop with our constant battles chasing each other? While I do wish it was the wind I was chasing, and the fall leaves that were chasing me while I was reading Harry Potter in a hammock by the lake. I so wanted to be in a closed loop with nature, and my books.
I close my eyes again, let myself free from all the thoughts and vanish into the wilderness. I could see the mountains calling me from far far away. All the places I wanted to go. It’s not that far maybe, just a couple months away. When there won’t be autumn leaves anymore, or the spooky winds, or fall colors, but there will be snow, and the white soft flakes, which she loves the most, winter is her favorite.
I guess it’s worth the wait, it will be the holiday season and we all will get a break, me, my knee, and my chair.

“Travel isn’t always pretty. It isn’t always comfortable. Sometimes it hurts, it even breaks your heart. But that’s okay. The journey changes you; it should change you. It leaves marks on your memory, on your consciousness, on your heart, and on your body. You take something with you. Hopefully, you leave something good behind.”
