The days have flown by like a gush of wind. It seems like yesterday when I took my first international flight to begin my studies abroad. I still remember the pride my parents and brother held in their eyes, glimmering so bright with each second passing by. Calculating the risks I will have to take while my flight landed Brussels, a sheer anxiety formulated within. It felt like being stuck between the future and the past; just the moment. So much was left behind and yet so much more was about to come. I still remember my heart pounding so fast with the mere thought of meeting new people, having a new family called friends and dedicating to a new life.
I took this picture early in the morning while my flight was about to land in Doha. I had never seen anything so mystical and beautiful. Never had my imagination drawn such a picturesque view of the nature and God’s creation. It was all before my eyes now, ready to be embraced by my dilated pupils. A view so majestic acted like a charm on all my thoughts, transporting me away from the anxiety I had withheld for unending hours.
And on this day, 1 year later, I am sitting in my bed re-thinking about that time and the amount of happiness it gave me. I still miss that moment sometimes, rewinding the very memory of it often. I am certain about it not dying, not at least this one. 🙂
