While having coffee, I heard two friends talking to each other. One mentioned that he had found a joyous, peaceful moment over his weekend. It had snowed and he said that he enjoyed one of life\u2019s beautiful moments as he walked quietly in the snow. There was no one around, a gentle solitude. He enjoyed the quiet hush of the snow falling to the ground\u2026 a moment of peace. His happiness was seen on his face and heard in his voice.
