Heavens on Earth - Hemu Village at Xinjiang, China

Good Things, Good Thoughts Quote - Overcome Life

My dear and I just had our 3-course candlelight dinner from one of the few restaurants available in this area. The time shown was 9 pm. The sky had turned so dark and the air was so cold. 

"Wait dear,"stopped him. He stood up right in front of me and tighten up the red velvet woolen shawl on my neck, to ensure that it kept me warmth enough, especially this season, the beginning of winter season. He tidied my hair up a little bit and, "Done!" He smiled widely showing his rows of beautiful white teeth, and his eyes, that small little eyes, in which I almost couldn't tell if he was opening or closing his eyes.

"I love you dear," whispered him gently.

"I love you too," and I smiled back at him.

Beautiful night at Hemu Village - Xinjiang - China

We walked through this beautiful row of houses along the wooden path and sometimes wooden bridge, along the different size and shapes of lamp posts, along the stacked of river stones at the side, and along the rows of flowers that were going to wither soon, with our hands clasping tightly side by side.

The lights in the darkness made everything surrounding us looked much more beautiful.And when we looked up high in the sky, the moon and the stars were there shining brightly. It added the romantic view that we had already had! 

"Oh dear, don't you think God create heaven on earth, just like this place?" asked me while admiring everything that happened that night.

"Yes dear. In fact, I never believed before that one could or can create heaven on earth. But now, I believe that it is possible," replied you.

We kept walking until we saw a small cafe. From the frosting window outside, we could feel the warmth atmosphere inside and when the door was opened, we could hear chattering sound and slow music from the inside.

As if you could hear my mind, you were asking me, "Dear, shall we go in and have a cup of tea there?"

I nodded my head and smiled. We walked in together.

As we entered, the warmth feeling immersed inside us. You helped me removing my jacket and we chose our seat, the one near the window. 

"Ooohhhh..... What a cosy place!!!" shouted me excitingly. I looked at the surrounding and was awed by it! 

The place was not quite big, only filled with few wooden tables and chairs. In fact it was almost full occupied. Despite such crowd, it was not noisy at all. Everyone maintained their level of noise just within their table.

Some were seen occupied with their books and a cup of hot tea or coffee in front of them. Some were busy tapping their iPad and mobile phones. Some were romantically dating, lovey-dovey, just like us! :)

There was small chimney and wooden logs were burned inside. Ahhh.... no wonder this place was so warm!!! Beside the chimney, there were wooden book shelves filled with books and magazines that anyone could borrow and read. 

"Wow!! What a place!! This place was just perfect for us!!" told me again, excitingly.

I did not know how you feel but it seemed it was more exciting for you to look at me rather than this place. Haha... I could feel your eyes were following me rather than the surrounding. 

We ordered two cup of hot ginger tea to keep our inner body warm. And we stayed there, talking our hearts out. In the background, this music lyrics were heard...

I know that if we give this a little time
It'll only bring us closer to the love we wanna find
It's never felt so real 
No it's never felt so right

Just a kiss on your lips in the moonlight
Just a touch of the fire burning so bright
No I don't want to mess this thing up
I don't want to push too far

Just a shot in the dark that you just might
Be the one I've been waiting for my whole life
So baby I'm alright, with just a kiss good night...
