Search for Serenity
Walking softly…as if on grass, freshly cut, early in the morning with a light touch of dew…cool to the feet…tickles the toes…I have been here before..this place…this place of hope. It is my own dream. A section of the mind that protects me from the world. The water is clear blue, and peaceful, the rays from the sun warm my face as I look upward at the sky with only a few puffy white clouds, just enough to entertain my imagination, tickling my fancy with shifting shapes and faces. Everything is so brightly colored, so magnificently beautiful. Walking softly….lest I disturb the absolute serenity with my presence just as any drop of water sends a ripple. My senses are alive, taking in every micro second that exists in this place, breathing deeply, listening intently, feeling the air touch my skin, tasting the clean crisp air, and seeing the deep colors. I stay as long as this world will let me, with my thoughts of peace and serenity.
You see this place I go, is mine and mine alone. This world is so full of chaos, it leads to my inner self…leads me to my own mind. The only place where serenity exists. It is within us. The search for serenity is so simple….all it takes is a look inside the soul.
