Serene Beauty.

Serene beauty can only be found in nature which is now not to be found as nature is overtaken by concrete and magnificent buildings and other huge constructions which only destroy nature. Serene natural beauty can still be found in many place which are cleverly hidden by nature itself.

So, try to find out such places and be happy.

Adios!

Ethereal.

More ethereal than anything is love, but few people think that they have the copyright over love and disallow the chance for others to be love, so be aware of such people.

They help others who do wrong on the sly and pretend to be true and honest but they aren’t.

Such is the etherealness in this world.

Adios!
