Wisdom Wednesdays

Peace. it does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise,trouble, or hard work. it means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart.
                                                                        (unknown)
We are inundated with stimuli in our daily lives. We are a society of individuals accustomed to tolerating a bevy of bells and whistles. As a matter of  fact, we often demand bells and whistles. The current state of being , at least for those who consider themselves productive and successful in today's world, requires that we respond to everything ASAP. We often pride our multitasking ability without questioning what the cost is of our frenzied pace and expectation of task completion. We are a species that needs time to reflect, repair and regenerate....yet, we don't build in time for this. The cost of our constant drive to innovate, improve and increase whatever it is we have is our PEACE.  We have convinced ourselves that any pace other than full blast will not yield adequate results. In reality, if we are unable to maintain our balance by attaining peace within, we risk living a life that feels like a constant struggle. How many of us at the core of our "goals" want to be at peace in all we do?  It is like anything else....it requires examination and action. Peace can be attained when we truly know ourselves, remain steadfast to our core values and leave our mark in ways that make us comfortable in our own skin. Consider this as you meander along life's path. Until seven suns set, LYM with peace in your heart.
