Walking on a green grass in the garden of my hotel in a hilly area, the captivating never ending road offered me a ride with a stranger who was sitting in his white “Dodge Challenger” who came at my place and moved out of his snow colored car and stood in front of me. I stopped for a while and starred at him, his hair was swaying with the wind and his eyes were deep and brown as the whole muddy mountains covered in his deep little eyes. He looked at me for a minute, came closer removed the shades on my head and put that on my eyes. He offered me a ride in a very respectful manner. I didn’t ask anything I quickly agreed because I love to accept the gifts of nature so the ride began. The beginning was quite confusing but the gifts of nature all around me changed my mood, we were comfortable but we didn’t talk.
On this nature’s ride, I admired wonderful mountains while crossing the bridge. Passing by a fascinating milky waterfall which was crossing the road to reach the river under it, we passed it fast to feel the tiny droplets of glacier water on my cheeks. After that I saw different little kids having the brightest shine in their eyes swaying their hands to welcome us. I also waved to them with a joyful smile. I named them “the kids with sunshine” Later on I switched ON the music player of car and calmed myself with the classic music of serenity, totally mesmerized by every little gift of nature, cute kids and different people working on their fields, the honeybee boxes from which people extract honey from the bees. A miracle happened suddenly, that silent stranger opened his mouth to speak and asked me to give him some snacks and water. I gave him water and the chips which were in my bag. Then he complimented my music collection because the depth of old songs made the ride more interesting and the greenery totally cherished our minds. This was the ride with no destination we stayed and refresh ourselves at different points, especially when I saw river closer to the road because I love the tiny droplets of freezing water touching my face while crossing it. When we stopped, I quickly lie near the river, dipped my head in the fast flowing icy river and felt like I was neither tired nor worry about anything in my life ever. A moment later, we sat beside the river and asked the stranger to play a game ‘let’s dip our feet in the water and see who will stay more in this river’ Both of us immersed our feet in it but unfortunately I lost because the water was freezing and my hair were already wet and flustered. I was feeling cold so we went back to the car.
And the journey continued further. I looked at the sky covered with red clouds which seemed like a big ball is splashing red color on different parts of sky. Then arrived the darkness, which enhanced the illumination of galaxy in the sky. He dropped me at the same green grassy garden of my hotel. I thanked for the decent car ride. It was a silent, soothing but memorable ride in which I observed the strangers with a stranger!
