I walked in the rain last night.
I have discovered this 10 minute walk that I can turn into 20 minutes when I want to that, ever since the weather has gotten nicer, has become this 20 minute period of elation everytime I walk it.
It's the perfect duration for a small joint and a cigarette and blue skies (usually) and nature and 3 great songs on the iPod.
So I slow it right down and I feel great as I get lost my own little world of amazing sounding music and the beauty of everything and I can't get the smile off my face and even if I could I wouldn't want to anyway.
It's 20 minutes of genuine peace. I am in no hurry and I am not debating anything; I am just enjoying the music and the weather and the exercize and the sum of it.
Arriving at my destination, even the most snappy or depressed of characters can't get me down; in fact I probably even bring them up a little.
I look forward to making this walk again tonight, ahead of what will surely be another awesome episode of Lost :D

I love those kind of walks.
What 3 songs?
No 3 songs in particular... though the last few weeks have been pretty-well dominated by Sigur Ros (various). Pretty much any of my list of favoured songs will do the trick in situations like these :)
The outside world is very noisy. Congrats for finding a way to block out the noise. :)
I am inspired to take a little walk in the rain too now. Though, now that I look outside, I'm not so convinced! I miss the warm summer days and clear blue skies. Ha-ha. What can ya do!
Enjoy your walks!
