4. I felt relaxed and learnt a new lesson. 

I like to move about and take long walks in nature to observe and admire different creations of God. I recently, went for a walk alone and got into the park next to my house. In the park, I saw children playing, some were on swings and others were running around stress-free. This reminded me of my childhood days. I was admiring the trees, breathing fresh air, etcetera. After taking a few rounds, I decided to go back home but I did not feel like going back that early, so I moved out of the park and kept walking. And as I walk along, I saw an old lady, gracefully dressed walking beside me. She was aged, elegant-looking and moved about with one hand telling the beads of her rosary and the other balancing her sloop. I saw that her mind was lost in prayer as her lips constantly moved inaudible prayer. It was beautiful to see how she managed to be unaffected by all that was going on around her and remain connected to the divine. When she finally sat on a bench and stopped praying. I sat next to her and after some conversation, I asked her how she managed to remain so concentrated and she told me about how important it was to pray. She encouraged me to make it a part of my life because only prayer can hold one together when everything else is falling apart. It was a walk worth remembering. After coming back home, I felt my day was complete as I learnt an important lesson for life.
