“In our increasing materialistic world, we are driven by a seemingly insatiable desire for power and possessions. Yet in this vain striving, we wander ever further from inner peace and mental happiness. Despite our pleasant material surroundings, many people today experience dissatisfaction, fear, anxiety, and a sense of insecurity. There seems to be something lacking within our hearts.” The Dalai Lama

For me, ‘Tranquility’ means the sounds of the rainforest after a storm as the water drips from the leaves in the canopy to the forest floor. The serenity of the forest is refreshed and the cool air brushes against all things against a background of water bubbling over rocks in a nearby creek bed. The smell of the freshly watered mulch beneath the undergrowth and the small sounds of the forest stirring back to life.
Timberwolf : Thank you for your beautiful words. Water has tremendous power. You also pick up on smell and sound. We’ll be including these elements in future articles.
