Mental thoughts

Life as we know it...

What do you do when the light at the end of the tunnel shrinks as you strive tirelessly towards it? Does anxiety and fear consume your heart as the inevitable thought of starting over sneaks into your mind? Paradise mentally removes those nagging thoughts of abandonment, discouragement, and loneliness as times currently are uneasy, to say the least. The soothing, musical sounds of the waves play an orchestra of talented musicians, as the froth kisses your toes. The aroma of grilled salmon and corn on the cob, along with various delicious foods, permeates all around you. You inhale your environmental bliss, exhaling all the stress of the world. The soft winds play with the edges of your linen shorts as your significant other walks hand in hand with you, a smile as bright as a morning sun. You begin to realize how powerful the mind is in that exact moment. The way of thinking can effect one's life in every aspect, depending on how thoughts are conveyed. The embers by the fire set in the middle of the beach enunciate every syllable in their dialect. The moon is gorgeous; a silvery gaze as it reflects off those pretty brown eyes you gaze at. The warmness of her hand imitates the fire as proximity nears closer. Her kisses take away more stress from your soul, as your lips intertwine. The table divulges a large dinner that your nose revealed the correct aroma. Salmon adorns the plate, decorated fashionable by the chef, surrounded by green vegetables. Corn lies comfortably adjacent to them. Bright, red wine sits lazily in crystal wine glasses. The entire vision glows heavenly by the fire. You pull out the wooden-cushioned chair for your Queen and as you sit and inhale your surroundings, and this moon that glorifies every image during its close descent, life mentally is BEAUTIFUL.
