Today I write about peace.

In this circus of a world we inhabit where not a day goes by without the death of someone’s dream, or the shredding of someone’s hopes,

I think about peace.

The peace of taking a minute out of your day, and sitting still. Taking in the air around you. Perhaps shedding a tear for what isn’t – but then warming to a smile of the tiny joyful things that are…

I breathe in peace.

When I am saddened, exhausted and worried for us all,

I yearn for peace.

And then I am grateful that each of us in our own way – know peace, and share peace, and celebrate peace…

I share peace.

We can choose to breathe in — deeply and slowly — peace and hope and a gracious love for the sounds we hear in our hearts, the flowers we see in our skins , the wisdom we know and share and learn in our being, the life that flows and gives us choices, the blood – bled dry by grief and anger and renewed again by hope and love and a gentle touch …

Will you join me… will you take a moment to breathe in, be and share…peace?!
