Is it possible to find daily peace and calm in our lives? Only if we make time for it...if we seek it out...or if we force the issue (most days). In our hectic lives, peace seems to far-fetched most of the time. It only seems to come around every now and again because our lives are so full of running here and there, schedules and deadlines. Can we find more peace more often? Or is it just something else we are chasing?
Most of the time I think I have a pretty calm demeanor...meaning, a pretty calm heart. But, when worry, concern, stress and negativity enter my heart the peace and calm I'm seeking feels buried deep down below. Searching for the good, the positive of each day...the light!...that shines upon each of us every day pleads to break through. How do you find your way back to the peace and calm? Deep breaths never seem to work for me. Beating up a punching bag is always a good option! Releasing stress through exercise is always good for me, but on the slower side of things meditation/yoga are good, too. How do you get back to your peace and calm?
More often than not daily life does not go as we had hoped or planned. Some days it knocks you down hard. Some days it fills your heart with worry and despair. Some days it gives you an unexpected surprise. Some days it feels downright boring. And some days your heart and soul are filled with more joy, love and peace than you could have ever imagined. That is the journey we are all on.
I wish we all had some peace and calm in our daily lives, but I know in reality it's not the case. So, I'll wish you this...a moment of light, of grace to shine upon you daily. May you find that moment each day to comfort you, to uplift you and in the end...give you peace!
Blessings to you today and everyday!
