| First star visible as day fades into night |
Watching the sunset and the clouds gently change shape and color
Listening to the robins sing
hop along
one in each tree
Gentle change
Happy songs
Crisp air
Calm
Bug flies by, on a mission,
doesn't seem to notice me noticing him
The world is coming alive from its winter sleep
I feel at peace
Welcomed
Like I belong
Not in danger
Not unwanted
The cool air fills my lungs,
refreshes my being
Looking up into the vast depth of blue sky above
cleanses my soul
All our trivial human frustrations fade to unimportance
God is in control
All is calm here
All is well.This reminds me of a quote by Anne Frank when she was hiding from the Nazis:
"The best remedy for those who are frightened, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere they can be alone, alone with the sky, nature, and God. For then and only then can you feel that everything is as it should be and that God wants people to be happy amid nature's beauty and simplicity. As long as this exists, and that should be forever, I know that there will be solace for every sorrow, whatever the circumstance. I firmly believe that nature can bring comfort to all who suffer."
