A Quiet Country Drive

1. Take a drive into the country on a leisurely day, noticing the pleasant sights you see along the way, like cozy country HOMES  that quiet atmospheres surround, and streets so lightly traveled  that you barely hear a sound. The yards have much more acreage acreage than cities dare to claim, and people make a wholesome family life their greatest aim. 

2. You can almost picture how they live most of their days, with routine CHORES they value in so many different ways. They’re not particular in details like some city folks, but understand in life what everyone should value most. Children have respect for parents who don’t pressure them beyond their capabilities despite the modern trend. 

3. They love to gather at the dinner table for a meal. It isn't just the food but all the warmth and love they feel. It is a special quiet time to show support and love, for all the feelings deep inside that they are dreaming of. Then in the evening as they sit and READ before the fire, they feel blest to realize their life’s fondest desire.

4. That is to lead a simple life devoid of stress and care,  experiencing support from those with whom they daily share. At times when I am driving through the countryside I feel, its quiet warmth and almost smell each cozy home cooked MEAL. I hear the birds all singing and can see the cats and dogs. I love then to imagine in the hearth the burning logs. 

5. Envisioning in silence family home activities, I see inviting  households sheltered by protective trees. A COUNTRY drive will be of greatest value you will see, for you can save and treasure  every happy memory. Tuck each one within your heart while traveling on your way, when driving through the countryside  some quiet leisurely day! "Make it your ambition to live a quiet life, minding your own business, and working with your hands, as we have instructed you." 1 Thessalonians 4"11
