Try to appreciate the unseen beauty that you might not yet discerned around you, the beauty of innocence.  Walk once in a while, Define the meaning of life by counting your little steps towards your desired refuge, wherever it is.  Don’t rush in, enjoy the promenade and take your time.  All walks are worthwhile, if you value the purpose of them.

You may travel and stroll outside the noisy and polluted city.  Along your way, you will encounter these little things that seems unnoticeable to you before:

The buzz of a bee,

The chirps of birds in the tree,

The goat’s bleats,

The flapping sound of the leaves,

The breeze of the wind,

The morning dew,

The foggy view in the fields,

The green grasses in the meadow,

The tiny pieces of hay,

The calm wave of the sea,

The warm rays of a sun,

The lovely sunset in the bay,

And the serene sound of peace.

You will feel the embrace and comfort gives by these unremarkable things to you previously, the Gifts from God.  Our ancestors enjoyed them in the past in the absence of today’s dynamic inventions of mankind.
