A pot of fresh-made coffee to start the day. 

A bunch of flowers on the kitchen table. 

The brisk morning air. 

The calm before the rigors of the day. 

The security blanket that is family. 

The warmth of a rising sun. 

The solace of friends. 

The smell of fresh banana bread. 

Peeling a fresh orange. 

A laughing baby. 

A smiling happy child. 

A peaceful tree. Still, yet full of life. 

The ever-presence of a loving God.
