Once upon a time in a beautiful city, there lived a young beautiful woman. She lived and worked in a cafe close by. She was a combination of good looks and intelligence and put her all into everything she did.

Jane Gomez happened to love everything about her life. But recently she had been through something. She was going through something with someone at work and she was trying to get over it.

Jane commuted to work daily by bus and rather enjoyed the trip. While working at this tiny cafe in the city called Serenity seemed like a breeze, she also liked sketching.

Jane was someone who had an artistic imagination, and so even while she worked hard at Cafe Serenity, she sometimes sketched on her tiny notepad, and those drawings were the joy and delight of her life.

One day Jane went to work as usual, and the day was filled with the usual humdrum of the cafe as business went on as it normally did. Jane sketched some images of coffee mugs on her notepad and enjoyed the day. She came home from work that day and after a warm chicken soup for dinner, she went to bed.

Jane Gomez happened to have a bedroom that looked like a dream. In fact, her little studio apartment may have been tiny but it was still beautiful. Jane was getting ready for bed when she whispered a small prayer to God.

Jane was trying to be spiritual about life these days, and she believed that good things would happen for her in her life if she prayed every once in a while.

Jane decided to do some sketching in her little notepad as she sat in her bed. It was still 9 pm and she felt it was a good time to work on her art. Jane felt that it was the only time she had during the day to do anything other than work.

But Jane fell asleep amidst the soft cotton pillows and comforter. The air conditioner in her room made the room a lot cooler than it needed to be. Jane was suddenly asleep and dreaming. She had a really strange dream.

Jane Gomez dreamed that she was sketching a scene from what seemed like a waterfall in the middle of a tropical paradise. She was a pretty good artist atleast in the dream, and captured everything.

She was very good at pencil shading, varied the intensity of the pencil lead against the paper to show the minor details such as the glimmer of the radiant sunshine on the surface of the waters as they cascaded while sparkling brightly into what seemed like a crystal clear pool. She used a silver felt-tip marker to make the glimmer even more pronounced.

Stella stopped to look at the drawing in her notepad and wrote a biblical scripture underneath it. "I have loved you with an Everlasting Love' which literally meant "I will love thee forever".

Jane woke up from the dream suddenly and realized that she had been dreaming. She thought deeply about the deeper meaning of God's abounding love for humanity.

She also thought about how in her beautiful dream she had just sat there in the soft grass trying to re-create what seemed like a natural wonder. She knew her drawing was nowhere as good as the spectacular scene she was witnessing in her dream.

She also thought about the little argument that took place with the attractive co-worker at work, and realized that like a waterfall is free flowing she should 'let things go'.

There was something utterly beautiful about this unreal scene, that almost seemed like a vision- and she thought she should forgive the person at work she had a minor argument with.

Jane opened her pocket bible and re-read the words 'I have loved you with an everlasting love' with a sense of amazement almost. There was something so deeply satisfying about thinking about deeper philosophy.

There was also something utterly beautiful about thinking about the bigger scheme of things, and how when one looked at the big picture, the small unnecessary details could be ignored.

Jane went to sleep again and thought about the dream the next morning. She went to Cafe Serenity as usual, and did things the way she normally did them. She also made up with the friend at work and Life was beautiful as always.
