Simple Pleasures
Kaira Leal
Many of us today who live in this fast-paced world of ours oftentimes forget to savor the simple pleasures in our lives. We're too busy doing this and that, scurrying about mulling over inconsequential matters to notice how the clouds are across the sky, or how soothing the whisper of a calm breeze is. You should try it sometime, it's really relaxing.
How wonderful God's creations are! His mighty hands made all things perfect, all things beautiful. And yet, many of us ignore this! We're too busy, as I said, to notice such "irrelevent things" like that. However, once you do pay attention to them, then will you truly feel the wonder of life.
I've always wanted to feel the rain pattering on my face. Problem is, I'm too worried about getting pneumonia or something even worse from my mother. *gulp*. But if I could, then I would dance all the way through the downpour, not caring about anything at all. It gives me a sense of abandon and tranquility, things that I don't usually experience everyday. Peace of mind is really addictive you know. Once you've felt it, you'll never have enough.
And also, once you've realized the true beauty of this world, you'll never stop praising God. You have my word for that.
