Finishing the sentence CXIX

Another unfinished sentence I wrote and some responses it elicited in September 1991:

Tranquility is best illustrated by...

...the innocence of a child who still has self-esteem, faith in others, believes in Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy, (has) pleasant dreams, and loves his parents. (Brian W.)

...a sleeping baby nephew, who has worn himself out picking snails off a concrete wall, filling his shoes with gravel, and rubbing the cat's fur backwards. (Charlotte O.)

...cancelling all the radio shrinks because the Nielsens say there aren't enough people with problems to justify them. (Miranda G.)
