Young and Beautiful

Had this little moment which I enjoyed tremendously today. Thought I'll just share it with y'all :)

I was all alone at home and I just woke up from a nap on the sofa, facing the clock on the wall. Decided to play this song "Young and Beautiful" by Lana Del Rey, a nice song which I discovered on Spotify.  It's also one of the theme songs for The Great Gatsby. So there I lay, on the sofa, with my phone next to me, and the song playing. It was just me and the song, and I stared at the clock letting the seconds pass.

It was the first time in years that I fully grasp the length of a single second. Music in my ears, thoughts on my mind, and I enjoyed every moment of it.

Haven't been in this pensive mood in a while and it was good. Made me appreciate my life amongst all the hectic nonsense in this materialistic world.

Anyw I loved The Great Gatsby. It's still on my mind even though I watched it on Sunday and I really don't mind re-watching/reading the book again. Jay Gatsby is my hero.
