I was walking back home from the bus stop at Ubi back to my block. As usual at the carpark entrance, I chose to walk (as many others) on this short trail. Just a couple of metres of well-trodden ground. It felt good, feeling the little pebbles under the soles of my sandals. The compact sand connecting me somehow in some miniscule way to the earth.
For that couple of minutes, I imagine myself walking in some kampung area. And if I close my eyes, I dream of walking barefoot in some wide expanse of grass and fields.
Sometimes I wish I were living in a remote seaside town or countryside.
The world cannot be merely Singapore.
Today's soundtrack to my life (ok my dreams to be precise).
Eva's one of my favourite singers.
The purity of her voice just gets to me.
Her take on Sting's Fields of Gold.
