I have miles to travel before I can sleep peacefully with the roses that the flowers work hard to keep.
I sit, quiet and alone with God and the heavens, realizing that there will always be comfort for every sorrow in the simple beauty of nature.
Looking into the cloudless heavens, I feel His presence encompassing me.
The world has its own music for those who are willing to listen.
It is the sound of calmness, innocence and passion.

I close my eyes and take in the pure aroma; hoping that somehow I will adopt its pace.
Nature refuses to be shackled and bounded.
No matter what, it is always genuinely living, as the slight breeze kisses the trees; giving it the ability to move freely.
Accepting nature and not trying to outwit the power of it is the first step along the road of truth and self-realization.

Nature should serve as a reminder that we don’t grow when things are easy; we grow when challenges dare to face the human race.
So keep breathing.
Keep living.
Keep dreaming.
Keep trying.
Understanding the world better comes from looking deeply into nature’s soul.
I forbid myself from “just living”.
I must obtain freedom, success and sunshine.

Once again, I hear the earth’s music filling my soul, reassuring me that everything will be alright.
Like nature, I refuse to be shackled and bounded.
The sweet breeze plants a kiss of confidence on my cheek.
I smile.
I have promises to keep, goals to reach and miles to travel before I can sleep peacefully with the roses that the flowers have worked hard to keep.
