ππ A Random Thought on Acrophobia ππ
I wonder how many of you reading this, like me, suffer from acrophobia. Whenever I travel with friends, I often find myself a lonely observer amidst their laughter and jubilation. Standing at the foot of a mountain, I watch as the cable cars gradually disappear from sight, and then turn to wander aimlessly in the mountains. However, a recent revelation has dawned upon me – while the grandeur of scaling a peak is indeed admirable, the serene beauty of βwild bamboo dividing the misty air, waterfalls hanging from the verdant peaksβ is equally captivating. π
During my travels, I’ve discovered that some places are ones I’ve always dreamed of visiting, some are unexpected surprises, and still, others leave me with a sense of regret. Such is the nature of life, isn’t it? If given a choice, I would hope to spend my entire life on the road, exploring and experiencing the world. π
