It's a memoir. Tell me what you think "I remember the day very well. I was making my way towards our farm, along with my wife, and we stopped as we crossed a bridge. The sight was so beautiful and full of peace, calm, relaxation, and most of all: nature. The slow glide of the river, the still spring air, free of smoke and full of possibilities. The town we were to pass through was gorgeous, containing exquisite buildings; one could gaze for days in wonder. The sun was rising, setting fire to the tips of the ripples on the water, granting a halo to the top of the clock tower. I wanted to freeze that moment and never leave it. For this reason alone I must return to that bridge tomorrow at sunrise, for I have felt little peace within myself of late, and need a healthy dose."
