At the yellow house on Island Pond, a family enjoyed a campfire, drinking sugar-free lemonade and hot chocolate while toasting marshmallows. As the fire dwindled and night deepened, a Beacon Hill broker reflected on the beauty of the stars from his bed. Feeling grateful, he appreciated life with his partner, resisting the temptation for beer, and focusing on the present instead of worrying about the future.
The family huddled around in a circle, its flames flickering in the darkness. Sugar free lemonade quenched their thirsts while steamy chocolate warmed their bones.
After, hot sticky toasted marshmallows sweetly fueled a peaceful ease of mind. The campfire is almost out. The night becomes darker and darker.
Later, lying in bed, the Beacon Hill broker gazed through the window at myriad stars sprinkling passionate light. Billions of vibrant suns pulsated hope to him.
While lying next to his love one, the broker smiled, cherishing life, defying his desire for beer. Appreciating the present and not assuming tomorrows.
