Abstract

hes and walk about with their brothers in the shade, doing nothing.What I want should not be confused with total inactivity. Life is what it is about; I want no truck with death.If we were not so single-minded about keeping our lives moving, and for once could do nothing, perhaps a huge silencemight interrupt this sadness of never understanding ourselves and of threatening ourselves with death.Perhaps the earth can teach us as when everything seems dead and later proves to be alive.Now I’ll count up to twelve and you keep quiet and I will go.<h2 id="fcce">The Reckoning.</h2>Looking back, it has been gathering momentum, the mad rush to achieve what we want, at any cost:To reap the seas leaving plastic in our wake.To demolish swathes of virgin forest, leaving desolation.<

Do you know it when you see it? Or do you sometimes fabricate an illusion of Peace to force the feeling you can only dream?

Can Peace be a constant state of mind, or is it doomed to ebb and flow throughout our consciousness? Why does it feel like a destination we must reach? Why must some of us travel so much farther, be delayed, detoured, or lost? The map is wrong and the road for you is re-drawn.

Is it possible for anyone to live whole in this existence of Peace, no matter what obstacle is presented before them, whether physical, emotional, spiritual, or mental? Some search their entire lives trying to find it, but what if we no longer needed to explore. We may own it and need to let it free to live in it and share its space.

Somehow I feel the answer will find me and not vice versa. My answer may not be yours, but what if it is?

I invite you to join me on this journey. Exploring other’s stories and experiences as well as my own may bring us to freedom to live in this space called PEACE. It may be tangible, symbolic, or sometimes measured by distance and time. May we listen and hear each voice and build together one community, city, state, nation, and beyond.

My purpose is to create and cultivate this magical space where dreams and reality have this creative explosion that prompts a shell shock of change where the impossible no longer exists. Let us create a place in this world where every single person has equal value and is encouraged to speak and be heard, where you can breathe more resounding in the air of possibilities. Each day your heart beats, you have the opportunity of Peace.

Feed the Spirit, Fuel the Faith

We all have something inside us that guides our thoughts and actions, whether spiritual, intellectual, emotional, mental, or physical. We have a choice.

What will you use to feed your Spirit? Your nourishment could be food, service, music, art, worship, physical activity, baking, drawing, reading, meditating, or conversations with friends. Enrich your Spirit with your joys and passions that fill your life. Show and share that Spirit with others.

This soulful nourishment will fuel the Faith, your beliefs, confidence, positivity, love, and truth in the movement for change. Can you believe that the key to Peace in all different forms was always with you? Sometimes we need help to unlock our access, whether self-imposed or a massive obstacle of forced restriction by others. When you feel like you can’t believe it’s possible, others will believe in you and help you find your key. I believe in you. No transgression or struggle is too big to have your Peace and share it with the world.
