I want to stay in the mountains,
Breathe fresh air,
In my little log cabin.

I want to wake up to the sound of birds chirping;
And fall asleep to nature's symphony.

I want to spend my days learning-
The art of making chinese tea,
Chinese calligraphy,
And yoga.

I am not trying to escape reality,
I want to live in reality.

Forget about the corporate ladder,
Forget about bags, shoes and pretty clothes.
At least for a while.
It sounds absurd.
But in my mind, I am already there.

Don't get me wrong,
There is nothing wrong with my present life.
I am merely trying to illustrate-
 My idea of a perfect state of mind.
