It's remarkable how this is one of the only times I feel alive. On a train hurtling passed the shore while I sit with my God-awful train station tea brewing before me. Yet each time I do this, I question why must everything be so overwhelming and complicated. When my favourite feelings are inspired by something not quite so majestic as a view from upon a mountain or that of a shoreline to die for. But simply, my shoreline. Albeit dingy. And this tea so pitiful. Perhaps this feeling isn't the feeling of being alive but of satisfaction by the difference that something so small can make in a world of so much.

What is mine is mine.
