Midnight at the Oasis

Midnight at the Oasis

Motoring offroad in Oman with Muhammad in a Toyota Landcruiser passing by splendid seashores, wonderful waterfalls, vacant valleys, magnificent mountains, cascading cliffs, and luscious lagoons we found ourselves in The Wahiba Sands. It was around the time of sunset so I ran up a dune which had to be about 50 feet or more trying to see the sun set. Once reaching the top I realized that the sun had disappeared behind other dunes which were much higher and farther away. Being in the desert you realize many things about the allure of it. The beautiful ripples, the subtle shades, and the gentle softness of its texture. There is a solitude that calls the soul to feel harmony, the heart to feel each moment softly resonate deeply within its innermost sanctuary and the mind to feel the quietude that gives the mind pure serenity. Feel the slight breeze around Midnight at the Oasis as it lightly covers you and then transports you to the dunes where you watch the horizons and feel the Divine Presence. At this moment you leave the terrestrial for the celestials.
