Tired but Happy

While passing by the river, I saw my reflection in the water. I've been traveling for weeks and never had time to check myself in the mirror. I looked tired but at the same time, happy. I was sweating and my eyes look like they need to be closed for the whole day, but I was smiling the moment my eyes met the waters. I stopped as my friends walk past me as they enjoy the sound of the river and the scenery of the morning greeting the earth. I took a deep breath as I feel the cold breeze. I was tired but happy. This was an ironic feeling for me. I wasn't able to get some rest last night just to catch a glimpse of the Milky Way Galaxy even though we walked for the whole day. But I was happy because I'm doing something I love.
