Pastoral innocence; the aroma of Paradise -- welcome thoughts in today's high tech society...

I bet you are tired of today's high tech society; noise, rush, cell phones, email, text messaging, conference calls, machines, cars, planes, etc.

All this drives away the tranquility of spirit needed to reflect and consider heavenly things.

There is a kind of pastoral innocence in certain societies which still has a bit of the aroma of Paradise; the aroma of recollections of primitive revelation; the aroma of the first blessings of God.

I believe that in Lebanon 75 years ago, you could still find things like this.
