Serenity

We each believe and hold to values and beliefs that are often so different from the person next to us- and yet in each of our world's, our own perspective seems so right... Our experiences have made us to be wonderfully diverse, with values that often cannot possibly coincide... and so the more I see and understand about this world and come to know people who all truly want to see change for good; the more complicated become my definitions of peace, equality, spirituality... and even love. As I hopelessly try to reason through one paradox after another in an effort to someday make sense of it all- I am relieved to find that there is one place that I can go where everything makes perfect sense and fits together in flawless beauty.  This is my serenity.  I thank God for nature.
