Late Afternoon

In the last few weeks I have not felt like posting because I just have anything in mind to put out there for you all to read. My life has gotten a little boring these days, so no new mind-blowing story to share. While I was deciding whether to post or not I started seeing some pictures I took yesterday when I went for a walk with somebody that's become important in my life. Thing is that I captured an afternoon picture and it turned out to be one of the most beautiful shot I have posted on mylot so far, so once I saw it I literally died to share it with you all. So here it is mylotters.
This picture really lifts me up and makes me feel happy. Whenever I feel down, I look for something that makes me feel inspired such as music, live concerts of my favorite singers, reading, and also pictures of sunsets and late afternoons shots. God loves you all mylotters!
PS: This is an area of town that's totally military and that's why it's all cleaned and tidy. I wish the rest of the city looked like this, thanks for reading.
Photo is mine. Taken on April 28th, 2019 Caracas - Venezuela

What a beautiful sky. Nature is so rejuvenating to the soul.
I listen to music or read when I need to "recharge"

That is the most perfect way to describe nature, rejuvenating. Thanks. I will do that too, reading and listening to music are my favorite hobbies appart from snacking. LOL

@amitkokiladitya Yes, they make sure to make it look that way. Hopefully that cleanliness can be spread all over the city as I wish It was.

Thank you @LadyDuck Yeah the sky was flawless that day, and yes as I said that area is one of the cleanest area in town, however I wish the whole city looked like that, but unfortunately it doesn't. :/

@jvicentevalera Good seeing you as well. Always keep in mind that one of the beauties of this site is that you can post about anything or nothing. It's your choice. No one chastises you for posting about nothing. And if you can do it creatively, even better. Remember that Seinfeld made massive millions of dollars creating an entire show about nothing.

@MommyOfEli2013 No way, that thinking is wrong. I bet many people love your artwork posts and healthy dishes to make when dieting. In my opinion there must be people who find your posts helpful, what about somebody who's planning on a healthy diet and all of the sudden see your post? That person would be inspired by what you eat and try that out too.

Is it hot in the Philippines? It must be unbearable! In my city, one day it is hot, the next day cold and cloudly, and the other sunny and breezy. It is like my city has this random weather that I still can't figure out!

Thank you very much for your words Dianne. When I took this photo I thought of you all, because I wanted to share more of this type of pictures that are inspiring, at least to me. And yes, things have been getting hectic in my city today, but it was necessary, Venezuela's current government is the worst ever. I will always be thankful with the USA for speaking out about Venezuela's lastest issues. Back in the day Venezuela and The USA had the best relations ever, but thanks to Nicolas Maduro our relations are broken. blame on him :(

Yeah @ShifaLk it is. Mostly because it is a military area, otherwise I would not think it was that clean :/

Really nice photo; I love the pink and blue in the sky. If it was not for my writing online and the occasional funny moment from the cats around here life would be rather dull but all the work I do online keeps me from being bored.
