most of the leaves in this quaint neighbourhood have fallen, preparing themselves to the coming winter. here i find myself, thinking that i might still be clinging to the last branch, steadfastly holding myself secure but slowly slipping away to the unknown. a false security to conveniences and impressions, denying myself what opportunities the cold outside hold? is it time to go home? to release myself from the constrictions of social perceptions and expectations? to unfasten the excited child and vigorously explore and take part renewed in the affairs of the world?

experience is one person's monopoly of the own's perception and reaction to matters around and about. this monopoly of experience leads us to capture what matters, oftentimes, at the expense of others.

"you go outside. make yourself believe you're seeing the world as it is. convincing yourself to go out. so you go outside. then see what you think is a hardworking man. with a wife and a young child trailing behind. suddenly you just can't help yourself form zoning out and thinking about what you've been doing for these long years. you realise. you're getting old and irrelevant."

the earth breaking, young with wily arms growing,
it reaches up as high as it can to meet the heavens.
and when days number and the earth ages,
it finds itself surrendering
its aged fingers descending to the ground
and the waters that nurtured it.

with the sun slowly creeping behind the shadowed mountains, a thin shroud of white was revealed - gently laid over this humble valley of three mists.
