Synthia’s POV
After Lucas left, I didn’t feel like staying inside the house. All of a sudden, it felt suffocating to stay indoors, and I wanted to be in the soothing presence of nature again. I went outside and sat in the garden. After sitting idly for some time just enjoying the fresh breeze, I decided that I would meditate for a while.
I closed my eyes and started uttering the mantra, ’Om’. I followed Fred’s instructions and sat silently without thinking about anything. Soon, I felt calm and all my worries disappeared one by one. After a while, I opened my eyes, and I was feeling confidence that everything would fall into place soon. I wondered why I hadn’t done this before now. I may have been able to gather myself from the jumbled mess my mind had become in the past week way earlier
