Right now I am sat on the sofa in a holiday cottage in the Brecon Beacons and feel so peaceful. I am surrounded by countryside and mountains. My dog is asleep on his bed in front of the wood burner and snoring gently. It’s raining outside and pretty windy but I don’t care. In fact I’m loving it!
I am in heaven! I have been here 3 nights and have loved every second of them. We’ve been for walks and we’ve had lazy afternoons napping. We’ve played in the garden and watched the chickens but I could cry at the thought of having to leave here tomorrow morning. Going back to reality tomorrow and to all the life issues I am trying to deal with makes me feel sad. I would love to stay in this holiday cottage in the Brecon Beacons forever!
I’ve just created a new life goal!
One day I will own a small cottage like this one with its wood floors, high ceilings, beams, wood burner and enclosed garden. I want to live in a rural location but not too rural. Be close enough to a village or small town so that I can get back into civilisation when I want to but also just far enough away so that I enjoy the peace and quiet. Living near mountains and woods so that my dog and I can spend each day exploring would be perfect.
Now all I need to do is figure out how to achieve this goal. Win the lottery? Very slim chance especially as I don’t actually buy a ticket. I’ll have to come up with plan B!
