Serenity. Peace. Tranquility. Of Mind and Heart.
As one sits on the porch one can only imagine life as it was
during a simpler but yet more trying time.
To look across the street and view the houses amongst my own, forces my
heart to seek the souls these houses capture and show forth with all they
grandeur and opulence.
In mid-afternoon you can hear the patter of squirrels
shimming up the trees; jumping from branch to branch finding their way
home. Birds fly and soar upward and out
of As sight high amongst the clouds so lightly scattered in the pale blue
sky. The sound of children’s laughter
and dogs barking only add to the reality that this is a viable, growing
neighborhood; a community for all to enjoy.
Viewing the lush gardens, has moths and butterflies
fluttering and frolicking amongst the tops of flowers in full bloom. Petals so
vibrant in color and scent; they yearn for the sunlight to sustain their growth
in the moist soil; soaked by a pounding downpour from the heavens. The stillness after the rain with the outpouring
of sunlight from the sky with scattered clouds bestows a banquet for all living
creatures and vegetation.
Such a scene provides food for ones mind to accept everything
around oneself as what should be is to be at this very time and no other. The mind feeds the heart a bouquet of senses
which create the Serenity, Peace and Tranquility so sought after by an anguished mind due to
man’s inability to accept what is and live according to the Laws of Nature.
Peace resides within in Oakwood because its neighbors see
what life should be and not what it actually is.
