The Journey You Like The Most

It was my first long ride on the scooter with my best friend. It was so beautiful that even while writing about it I can imagine the whole view. I went to many rides after that but being the first one made it very special.

It was my first time going out of my area on society. The scene was of green fields on both the sides of the road and in some fields, yellow flowers were blossoming. And no traffic, it was just me, my friend and the beautiful nature. 

This journey gave me a sense of power and freedom which I never tasted before! Everything was new to me, though I will not say that this was my first time to go on long drives but this was my first time without any elder with us. While holding the handle of the scooter I felt as if I got the control that I was waiting for desperately.

And when I took a U-turn on my way home, it felt like a dream and someone is waking me up from it. The fields, the flowers everything was going away as if someone just gave me freedom just to taste and not to keep it with me. 

When I reached home, I wrote down everything from how I felt to all things I saw. It was the best experience!

Everyone has that one journey from where it all starts, from where you feel that you have control over everything around you. And that very journey makes you fall in love with freedom!
