It was a calm and sunny morning. The dew on the bright green grass of the lawns shimmered and shone like they had been saving it up all winter, sprinkling the neighborhood with a glistening that had been missing lately. It was as if the lawns had simultaneously decided to display their pride and joy and bestow this beauty, this treasure as a declaration that yes, sunny days are here again. The trees in the neighborhood allowed for beautiful sunbeams to infuse the lawns and gardens, creating a colorful display of lights in both front and back yards on this fresh sunny morning.

The bright sun lit up the insides of the houses, leaving no need to turn on any of the indoor lights. People awoke; feeling well rested…what a difference! With the sun peeking through the windows, who could resist feeling well rested and…and…and content? Yes, content!

The smell of coffee soon began to permeate this calm and peaceful morning. Ahhh, sunshine and coffee…who could ask for anything more?!

And, for this beautiful, brief moment in time, all forgot that such a thing as trouble existed in this world.
