The scene above looks serenely peaceful…and it was. We walked home from town along the beach the other day, enjoying the late afternoon sunset. It was the soft mauve of the hills in the distance that made me drop the chicken we were having for dinner, and dig out my camera.
Moments like these bring a deep sigh of contentment and relaxation of any tension present in the body.
Moments like these are to be treasured in a world that seems recently set on overwhelm…a world almost literally cracking open.
You don’t need a tropical beach for moments like these. They can happen easily, anywhere and at anytime. What beautiful moment have you been aware of in your world today?
Grateful blessings of the moment to all,
you are so right - thank you for that reminder

Today I am feeling at peace as I sit in a quiet, cozy room listening to the pelting rain and howling wind outside...It just makes me feel good today...

Sometimes, I can stand in my backyard, close my eyes, and just listen to the wind rustle through the leaves of the trees. In my mind's eye, the sound transports me to a beach where I can hear the sea breezes......always calming to my soul and I feel contentment to just 'be'.
