This morning, the air was fresh, with a gentle breeze carrying the scent of earth and wet leaves. The village road seemed so peaceful, only the sound of birds and the distant roar of motorbikes occasionally breaking the silence. The morning sun touched the slightly cracked asphalt, reflecting a warm and calming golden hue. On the left side of the road, trees grew shady, their green leaves dancing in the breeze.
I paused for a moment at the side of the road, enjoying the simple yet peaceful atmosphere. This place may seem ordinary to many, but for me, there are enduring memories around every corner. I used to pass this road often, whether on my way to school, returning from the rice fields, or simply taking an evening stroll to enjoy the sunset. Now, every time I see it, it's as if time has stopped for a moment, allowing me to reminisce about a past that was calm and carefree.
The sun continued to rise, casting shadows across the trees that stretched along the roadside. In the distance, several houses with bright red roofs could be seen, swept away by the morning light. This rural atmosphere always has its own charm simple and unassuming, yet capable of conjuring a sense of peace that's hard to describe.
I captured this view not only for its beauty, but also for the meaning it holds. Every photo, every step, every gust of wind feels like a small slice of life I want to remember forever. Sometimes, happiness doesn't have to be sought far; it can be found on quiet streets like this, under the soft light of the morning sun, and in a heart that knows how to appreciate simple things.
