In this frenetic lifestyle so many people are living nowadays, there is little time to appreciate the simple things in life. This photo I took in 1998 in Larchmont, New York reminds me of a certain peace and tranquillity that I cherish, away from the constant struggles we have to deal with in our daily busy lives. This gazebo was in Manor Park, in the town of Larchmont, NY, overlooking the Long Island Sound, and was a mere 15 miles from Manhattan, NYC, with millions of people mingling, working, socializing, celebrating or just living in one of the many skyscrapers. And as chaotic and confusing as life could be in a big city, particularly ‘the city that never sleeps,’ one can always find a little personal space to find solitude, a tranquil atmosphere to replenish your spirit. It could be a church, a tiny chapel, your own room, or under a gazebo looking at the sunset. I wish you can find this inner peace in your heart, in the silence and stillness that connects you with God.
