about

A young man got on a bus at a bus terminus. He had briefly studied the departures board but didn’t recognise any of the destinations or many of the towns listed on the routes. This wasn’t a cause for concern to him. He walked out of the terminus building and started walking towards the buses waiting to depart. Having walked up and down the bus stands studying the buses, he got on a bus with only a few passengers yet on board and went and found the seat that beckoned to him. As the bus pulled out of the bus station he had no idea where it was heading.

After some time on the bus; he wasn’t sure if it was hours or days or even years, his attention was attracted to the landscape and the golden light outside. While he was being mesmerized by the rhythm created by the light dancing on the windows and the sound of the wheels on the road, the bus slowed and stopped, and the bus driver stood up and announced that if anyone needed to stop for a minute now was the time. The young man moved to get up but then hesitated, considering if he needed to get off or had simply felt the urge for a change of scene. He then got up and moved down the bus and down the steps, jumping off the last step onto the dry red soil. As he did so, the light and the warmth of the sun hit him full in the face. He brought his hand up to his forehead to shade his eyes so he could see where he was. He was standing at a crossroads.

Up until recently he had been told where to go and what to do more than he ever had a say in the matter. Now he was able to go wherever he wanted and do whatever he wanted; a set of circumstances he had increasingly over the years often imagined and yearned for. Yet, having recently arrived at this point in his life, not having a firm idea of either had caught him by surprise and he had panicked. But now the feeling of unease was momentarily broken by his awareness of the warmth of the sun on his face, before he realised that he could not stand at the crossroads with the sun in his eyes forever. The reverie had passed. But the memory of the lucidity and equanimity that had come from the sun on his face in that moment would return often throughout his life. It would also leave him with a powerful feeling that at every crossroads where he is uncertain, he should follow the sun.
