00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.200
The wind didn't just blow across the white

00:00:02.200 --> 00:00:02.919
daisy hills.

00:00:03.279 --> 00:00:05.900
It seemed to sing, rustling through a boundless

00:00:05.900 --> 00:00:07.940
sea of blossoms that stretched as far as

00:00:07.940 --> 00:00:08.820
the eye could see.

00:00:09.599 --> 00:00:11.939
Clara let go of her bicycle handles, letting

00:00:11.939 --> 00:00:14.060
the rusted metal tumble into the sea of

00:00:14.060 --> 00:00:14.839
green and white.

00:00:15.400 --> 00:00:17.679
For hours, she had peddled up and down

00:00:17.679 --> 00:00:20.160
the rolling green hills of the peaceful countryside,

00:00:20.699 --> 00:00:22.920
chasing a horizon that always seemed just a

00:00:22.920 --> 00:00:23.960
little bit further away.

00:00:24.790 --> 00:00:27.339
Now, standing ankle deep in the vibrant natural

00:00:27.339 --> 00:00:29.399
colors of the meadow, she stopped to catch

00:00:29.399 --> 00:00:29.980
her breath.

00:00:30.559 --> 00:00:33.100
Millions of detailed petals shimmered in the warm

00:00:33.100 --> 00:00:34.179
afternoon sunlight,

00:00:34.640 --> 00:00:37.479
their bright yellow centers blinking like tiny suns

00:00:37.479 --> 00:00:38.740
against the emerald backdrop.

00:00:39.399 --> 00:00:42.320
Above her, a vast canopy of brilliant blue

00:00:42.320 --> 00:00:43.820
sky stretched endlessly,

00:00:44.359 --> 00:00:46.939
dotted only by a few lazy, gentle clouds

00:00:46.939 --> 00:00:48.960
drifting by without a care in the world.

00:00:49.640 --> 00:00:51.799
She dropped to her knees, the crisp scent

00:00:51.799 --> 00:00:54.119
of crushed stems and sweet nectar filling the

00:00:54.119 --> 00:00:54.479
air.

00:00:55.039 --> 00:00:57.340
Plucking a single stem, she twirled it between

00:00:57.340 --> 00:00:58.000
her fingers,

00:00:58.420 --> 00:01:00.759
marveling at the simple perfection of nature before

00:01:00.759 --> 00:01:02.560
tucking it gently behind her ear.

00:01:03.100 --> 00:01:05.599
As the golden light began to soften, painting

00:01:05.599 --> 00:01:07.379
the landscape in amber and honey,

00:01:07.840 --> 00:01:09.500
Clara lay back into the cool grass.

00:01:10.040 --> 00:01:12.019
In that quiet embrace of the earth and

00:01:12.019 --> 00:01:14.219
sky, the rest of the world simply faded

00:01:14.219 --> 00:01:14.560
away.
