Joy is not in things; it is in us
Yeah! I am not embarrassed about hiding my emotion today, it is really bad and I am nearly go to the hell. Sometimes I find that my self is so fucking crazy and I am not quite myself as usual.
Lying on the bed, looking out the window with concentration, I saw myself is extremely pathetic, a girl who has been sucked all the life. I asked myself what if there is anything interesting out there can help me change my mood. Obviously I cannot give myself the answer because living and growing up in Dakmil town over 18 years, I had no will to walk around and discover it. It sounds terrible, right?
My hometown is one of the most developed town in Dak Nong Province, it takes about 8 hours to travel from Ho Chi Minh city. Although the area of this town is not quite as large as others, it still has 19 ethnic minority groups with the diversity of brilliant industrial crops.
In the past, my friends often asked me to take them home, they wanted to visit my mother’s garden with the landscape there cause the rumor about my hometown has gone so far. I did not know what to answer them besides a promise of I will let them arrive here one day. It is so rediculous for me if I admit to them that “I have no idea about my hometown, so why can I take you guys there”.
Honestly, Dakmil town gave me the bitter memories of family tragedy so that I almost disgraced this place in the bones. Once one has been hurt, they will hate everything that related to that hurt, especially the bereavement of spirit.
In an attempt to save my rest of a day, I determined on getting out of my hazy bed, then take my favourite camera to wander Dakmil with the aim of changing my depression.
Wearing shoes and helmet, I locked the door and speeded down the street, crossed a thousand of people and stopped in the West lake in the center of Dakmil town.
When I was a little kid, my mom told me that the West lake existed from 1940s by the French colonialist with the purpose is to stock water for this area in the dry season to grow coffee planatation. Nowadays, the west lake is not only a main stable water supply for citizens but also being an attractions for tourists and an entertainment for residents.
Do not confuse West lake in Dakmil with West lake in Ha Noi capital, dears! The old people in Dakmil called it “West lake” according to its location to the west of Dakmil town, which is totally different from West lake in Ha Noi.
In this lake, I nearly went jump to the lake with the suicidal thought in mind, one legs was on the air while the rest one was on the onshore. Luckily, I did not do such a silly thing. Think of that terrible day, I was so childish and want of thought...!
In the afternoon, this place is also the destination for youngsters wating for the sunset scene with the sun is mirrored in the surface of lakes creating an full area of golden color..
After a tour going around West lake, I drived my motorbike to Dak Sak commune in which stayed in a few miles from the Dakmil.
My brother suggested me this place before, he told me that the dam W was built in 1999 with the first goal of suppling water to agricultural operations. Time after time, this place was known as a must destination to visit in Dakmil because of his charming from its structure.
I have no surprise in this destination because there is nothing impressive to me, I still wonder why they can spread rumours like that. Or the problems is on me that I don’t have the artistic eyes ^^.
It seems to be wrong to me to arrive Dam W, because my mood was still hang in the tree. A lot of thoughts and despression feeling came back again in my head, nothing more better. I kept running away from what happened in my inner.
Before going back home, I decided to stop by a coffee shop in Dakmil town to reward myself a cup of daisy tea.
"For God's shake", I hollered when seeing these puppies. They standed up in front of the yard, looked at me with the curious look. Deep in my heart there was a fire burning so hot, my mind froze for a while. I just wanted to catch up them, hold these puppies in my hand, give them a lot of kisses.
Maybe this moment saved my soul from the muddy of blue devils. I know my decision this time was so right, I am quite please with it.
Well!!! My tedious day took on the character of a clown as depression followed depression. Tomorrow will absolutely come, but no one knows what is going on to happen.
Dear all readers! I offer my most sincere apology to all of you. I should not let my bad mood effect you guys. I can choose another way to release my low spirit instead of writing it out like this, but somehow there are something here made me write and write. Probably the gentle vibe and the feeling of being listened lead me to Hive platform.
Have a great day, my friends ^^!
