without reason

It was one of those mornings, where you woke up enveloped in this unexplainable yet welcomed sense of serenity and joy. It was 5.45am and the morning stillness was the only thing I heard (apart from the my shuffling about the room) as I got dressed and geared up to get to the hospital. As I sat in the train, the rising sun was slowly beginning to show her radiant face...ray by ray, until finally the sprawling fields along which the train whizzed passed were ablaze. I sat there completely taken by this unfolding miracle of nature. So many times we are surrounded by little occurances like these and never fully grasp the magnitude of its glory, so this time I decided to actually consciously be present in that moment.
It was one of those days, where you couldn't help but smile and this smile was real because you could feel it surfacing from within and not just the opposite ends of your mouth stretching outwards. Suddenly smiling to one's self didn't seem so crazy.
These days, when joy and happiness have no underlying cause and you feel like that just because, are days to treasure. That kind of elation is sincere, independant of any rhyme or reason, and not answerable to any earthly influences.
These are days when life is magnified, our senses are heightened and we get to experience a little bit of perfection.
