Publisher: What a beautiful sunset! Don't you think?

Assistant: Oh yes, I love coming to this park after work, because I relax watching the sunset, listening to the children laugh, the birds sing, and then I breathe and, like everyone else, I go on with my life.

Publisher: Yes, I agree with you. Those things give us peace, and it's wonderful that we make time for them, since nowadays there's so much stress due to our hectic lives.

Assistant: Oh yes, I used to be one of those stressed people, but it helped me a lot to take my five minutes to breathe, exercise, try to sleep well, and that has helped me.

Publisher: I'm glad to hear that. Did you know that living without stress is possible?

Assistant: I know it can be controlled, but living without stress is not. Do you know how?

Publisher: Yes, the wisdom of the Bible helps us avoid unnecessary stress.

Assistant: Yes, I'm interested in the topic, but look, they've already come for me. Perhaps another day when we meet again, we can talk about this.

Publisher: Yes, that's great. I wish you a wonderful afternoon.
