In the Middle of Nowhere

Ella and Mike checked into this cosy little hotel in the middle of nowhere. There were no other houses or people living anywhere close. One could hear nature's voice, the toneless presence that silence brings. One could hear one's own thoughts clearly with no interruptions.

Can we have a map? Ella asked the old lady, who appeared to be the owner of the hotel, she smiled and handed Ella a map. If you continue on the red track long enough you would see the beauty of nature, said the old lady, It was a tiring walk, but Ella and Mike continued. They took breaks at intervals to catch some breath. After about 6km they met a couple who smiled at them and said "It is so beautiful up there". This motivated Ella and Mike even more to walk.

They soon approached a turquoise lake beautified by low clouds hanging over it like a canopy protecting it from the sun's ray. The wind breathed on the water causing soft clashes of waves, displaying the lakes true elegance. Ella and Mike found a nice spot to setup their camping tent so they could spend some time with this breathtaking beauty in the middle of nowhere.

I call ths painting "In the Middle of Nowhere".
