Blue sky

25.03.10

pretty clouds!

i remember looking up at the sky when i was little...

walking to school with a big bag on my back, a lunch bag and a pair of inside shoes bag on each hand... 

playing up on the jungle gym and i remember seeing the blue sky...

mum used to say the sky even gets higher in autumn, i still never understood why, but i remember seeing the autumn sky and thinking, wow.. it IS higher in autumn..

then i moved to new zealand,

i kept on looking up and wowing at how "blue" the sky is. it was only then i learnt the true colour of "sky blue". it was so pretty (it still is)

making funny animal shapes with clouds.. a whale with a rabbit tail, a duck with a huge poop dangling on its @ss...

seeing airplanes and helicopters...

but suddenly there is a huge gap in my life where i have no memory of seeing the sky anymore :'(

perhaps i have grown out of the dreamy side of me?

perhaps i have no time to stop, breathe and look up?

perhaps i have been pushing too far without giving myself a rest?

after moving to aussieland 

i look at the sky... all the time! but i have not had any chance to admire its beauty of it

i just look.. and think 

"should i carry the umbrella to work...? gosh it's so heavy!" 

"oh man another day of clouds... when am i going to be able to do laundry..."

"looks too clear. i need extra layer of sunscreens"

geez.. what a critical feed forward mechanism i have developed!

i must be heading towards the big wild adulthood now..

but doesn't mean i have to lose my inner child-side of me...

there you go. you are doing well. pat pat on your shoulder.

just give yourself a break time to time. have a breathe and look up at the blue sky. 

just like it can absorb everything that's happening underneath it..

grow a big heart and see a bigger picture

so today,

a nice thursday afternoon

i took a picture of the beautiful blue sky

dream on!
