Our Peaceful Piece of Paradise

 


In today's world of Covid, the Taliban take over in Afganistan and the anniversary of 9/11, I try to focus on being in the present and celebrate the simple things in life.  

It's hard to imagine that our peaceful piece of paradise down under has been jolted by terrorism again. The attack in Lynnmall, last week, reminded me that we are so vunerable as a global community.

My heart goes out to the victims, the workers and the public who were present in Countdown that afternoon. Keeping themselves and others safe under Level 4 Lockdown, whether working or shopping is stressful enough without the fear of being attacked.

We need to remember be kind, be generous and embrace the small joys that Lockdown gives us.

  1. Wow! That is surely a beautiful image. As you said after all the turmoil that is going on around all of us. We do need to sit back and focus on some of the beautiful things in life. Its those little beautiful things that often bring calm to our world. For me seeing the ocean, water and bays, brings calm as they are alwys different. Thankyou for sharing such a beatiful image and reminding me that outside all of this there is clam and peace.
