being jaded

yesterday on my way home from work i detoured through killian court & sat and watched the rain. it felt oddly peaceful to be there, the way it never is during term. and i've been discovering over the past few days that no matter how jaded about the world you think you are, there are moments of beauty that give an unexpected amount of hope.
being on a bus shouldn't logically bring any of these, but driving through connecticut with the sunset on my right pouring gold in through my window conclusively proves otherwise. i wish there was a way i could have taken a photo and captured the warmth and the glow, but alas, camera phones can only do so much.
next time you're feeling jaded, go lie in the grass and just exist.
