A trek up Triund hill sparked a feeling of quiet and calm. A stray dog following behind, would wait, in our shadows until we reached the top. We named her Loyal. Lush green meadows and clouds descended to create a thick mist. Reaching the top, clouds were afar leaving a view of ineffable joy. A serenity never felt before. A strong sense of being - to be part of this natural world - staying with me even today. Here you see Ellie meditating on a rock in the early hours of the day.
