Change
Justin took a deep breath and inhaled the fresh air as he walked down the deserted country path, no one in sight for miles around.
Walking on the dirt road, lined by trees was a stark change in comparison to the madness of the concrete and pollution of the city, he had spent every waking second of his life in.
Everyone had called him crazy for his decision to quit his plum job at a city Bank and settle down in the countryside to do the one thing he loved -write with no interruption.
He was so glad he had listened to his heart and taken the plunge, for who knew what the future held unless you took a chance.
The loud honking of the snarling traffic woke Justin and he sprung up from his bed cursing, "Another darn dream!"
Too bad it was only a dream.May be he should make that move soon. :)Good work!
ReplyDeleteHi Shail, thanks for visiting. I agree he should make the move. Most of us keep on wanting to do something but are wary of taking the plunge. Wrote this keeping that in mind. :-)
DeleteAww, how I often have the same dream! Nice.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Sheila. I too do have this dream off and on :)

Hi Anita, I agree we must follow our dreams but sometimes bills and responsibilities over shadow them and its hard to break out... But yes we must keep on trying :-) :-) :-)
