“As life progresses, I become
more aware of my personal
peace and calmness that
connect with the environment
around me. This bird’s-eye
perspective with the upside
down trees, branches and
leaves dancing on the water
richly decorated with the
natural reflection of sky,
sunlight and clouds, is cer-
tainly mesmerizing. I can
dive beneath the reflective
surface in search of a deeper
spiritual connection and
peace. It eases away the sad-
ness, pains, anxiety and fear.
To achieve the strength of
peacefulness isn’t something
out of reach; it’s having the
ability to just push away the
unwanted things.”
