My feet were naked and plunged firmly into the warm, pure white sands of the banks of the Kafue. Below the lazy brown waters of the river meandered past in the silence of the strong mid-day sun.
I was alone. Alone with Nature and Time. Here in Gods Paradise words were not needed. The very air vibrated with the holy contentedness of Nature. Overhead the birds sored through the deep blue sky, performing skillful dives, now gliding on their bellies, now dropping onto a branch to gather their energy to be able to take off again and boast of their glorious freedom. This was the realm of peace. A Golden Silence. " The still waters amongst a troubled sea." Here I could find the rest and solace I needed. Away from the hustle and bustle, the hatred and unreality of the outside world. I prized these moments of complete oneness with myself, with the birds, the trees and this River of Life.
