It was while exploring the parklands, that I stumbled upon this view by the Torrens Weir. While the rest of the Park Lands are beautiful in their own way, this view made me pause, made my heart feel at ease.

Having moved to the city recently, I was a little homesick, contemplating my decisions and missing the greenery that used to surround me back home. But pausing by the weir, I saw a perfect balance between the city on one side and this view on the other. To me, it felt like a balancing point between chasing my dreams in a new place and the comfort of home. It made me realize that no matter where I am, I can still find the peace and strength that comes from home, even in the middle of a land far away.
