I looked enviously towards the trees, emerald leaves dancing in the breeze, and muttered, “It’s so simple for you – all you have to do is breathe and be.”

I felt the wind blowing softly through my toes, in my hair; and then it was in my ears and it whispered, “But it can be simple for you too Sabah – all you have to do is breathe and be.”
