I'm Feeling Very Guilty

A long early morning walk has left me feeling rather worn out and in need of a rest.  The weather, today is uncomfortably warm. It was a good decision for me to take an early exercise walk before the sun gained too much energy. Upon return, not feeling too energetic I decided to retire to the bed in my spare room. It was still early in the day and hardly a time for such luxuries. 

The sun was shining strongly on the window ledge and the breeze entering through the open window was pleasantly warm. Lying on the bed with my eyes closed and listening to my favourite collection of classical music, I was mentally conveyed into another world. I had recently purchased a Sony WH-XB900N set of headphones. It had not been my intention to buy such an expensive set for as far as I was concerned, I was not much of a  connoisseur of sound.

Here I was lying on my spare bed listening to my favourite music. I was utterly transformed by the clarity of the sound and the ambience of the occasion.  It was as though I was right in the midst of the orchestra or next to the musician. As I lay there with my eyes closed and caressed by the gentle warm breeze that entered through the open window, I could have been in any famous location. I could have been in any great concert hall in Rome surrounded by great gilded works of art or reclining on a beach on the Mediterranean coastline.
