Romanticism Walk

Im usually not allowed to go on random walks, nonetheless by myself. So I decided to take my walk during school, early in the morning when hardly anyone is there. As most people at Righetti know, it can get pretty loud in the hallways, so I typically put on my headphones to just be in my own world. Yet, when everyone was gone and my only company was the cold misty air, and a soft breeze, everything seemed at pause. It was weird to be incomplete silence, and just listen to the birds hanging out on the phone wires, or hear that one car's tire screeching as it was probably late for work. Yet, at the same time it was fascinating to see that all my stress of high school, people, and work suddenly seemed so small in comparison to what was really happening in the world. At times it feels like everything is coming down on me, but then I hear the soft sound of the wind, the birds chirping, and see the sun raising in the sky and instantly the world seems to put some of its peace in me.
