I often imagined myself as “Sheena, Queen of the Jungle,” spending days climbing trees, feeling at one with nature as I listened to birdsong and observed the distant horizon.As I sat reminiscing on the world I left behind I softly hummed to my favorite Rod Stewart’s ‘Rhythm of my Heart’ to self soothe, cementing the melancholy feeling that had been settling over me, due to the lingering echo of pa...
