Well, my weekend was eventful. On Friday evening i ventured to our common venturing place... Yorketown. To visit my lovely relies on their farm. We often go there to relax and enjoy the smell of country air, to kill the car by driving slightly recklessly, to get caught in the rain on the beach or just generally to observe some nice scenery. The only difference this time was that i had to study which was ok because it is peaceful and a tad tempting to do something better than study, with my little time. Besides that though it was brilliant.
Myself, my sister and her friend drove to the beach and saw the most beautiful sunset over the water... the horizen was never ending. I didnt realise how much i missed standing on the cliff top, out-stretching my arms and feeling the chill in the air on my face... then opening my eyes and seeing this beautiful sight, this huge display in front of me, pure excellence. This was followed by great partying on behalf of the Preuss family...
I then went outside to find a drinkbottle, and something stopped me. It was this glowing that came from the sky. Now in the city you can see like 7 stars.... When your in the country its a different story. There is no black sky left... its filled with stars, i swear it turns to a white and silver glimmering sky. The stars brighten your path, you look up and you can see the milkey way, the southern cross, clearer than EVER. And one of my favs is the saucepan.... it has a longer handle in the country. The sky always tends to make me want to sing, so thats what i did. On the back of the ute, staring at the sky i sung.
The point of my babble is. That we really dont realise how lucky we are to have the country night sky just around the corner. Yes it may be a 5 hour drive but its not that far when you put it in perspective. Dont be so lazy and take a roadtrip. I will miss the farm untill i return as i always do. I love the sky, it brightens everything. I could write 78762387 essays on how prettyful it is. Another amazing things was that i actually witnessed the sunrise.... at 5am something i've forgotten about for a very long time.
Im not usually a morning person, i am nocturnal... not really thats a lie, but im usually a late night sort of woman. I have decided i will be a morning person. Because watching the sunrise over the farm was incredibly breath taking, you dont see things like that when you sleep in till noon. the shadows it created on the shearing shed wall, the reflection of the rays as it showed over the field was just STUNNING. It was just beautiful. It was actually picture perfect... (I took a photo, i havent put it up sorry :) ) and it made me think of how much detail went into making this brilliant world. Every sunrise was planned from the beginning. what colours it would include, what time it would arise.... Sigh, its just lovely. This fact leaves me slightly speechless. The sheep were grazing in the green field, the tree's were black against the amazing orange, yellow, pink and red sky... and then the sun rose. And i knew that my day had started :)
SO advice for today.... wake up early, its so worth it. (But only if you've had an early night :P)
Peace out xx
I'll leave you now with some beautiful farm (Yorketown) pictures taken by my own Father.
