That electric plug in the balcony 🔌
I love my balcony! It is the one thing I look forward to throughout my day, and I find excuses to sit or stand there as often as possible.
Mornings and evenings are my personal favorite, though. Before starting work and after finishing work, the balcony is my pathway to freedom. I always feel at peace on my balcony. I might have inherited this from my mother, who has healed away so many of her rough days just by sitting on the balcony watching the sunset!
I haven’t even set up a fancy or comfy sofa/chair on my balcony. I drag my wooden chair from the dining table to the balcony to sit there and sip a cup of tea or coffee. Sometimes, I don’t even have anything to drink, and I love watching the vast open sky, moving trains, and kids playing in the park downstairs. It brings so much peace.
And it doesn’t end there; I hear many birds and crickets chirp within the trees, and it is a pleasant sight. In winter, it is often covered with snow, which makes it look all the more beautiful. Spring has the new trees, and fall has a lovely rustic color on the canvas of this painting before me. In summer, it is lush green and brighter due to the more extended daylight.
