This Week’s Prompt: 28.09–04.10
All things peace.
Good morning/afternoon/evening, now and forever!
How is everybody’s energy levels? Mine are currently enjoying a rollecoaster ride: some days up, some days down. That is why, I am particularly preoccupied with achieving inner peace and hopefully recallibrating and recharging myself a little.
This rollercoaster inspired this week’s prompt on peace. I am actually surprised we haven’t touched on this topic before, as peace is closely linked to feeling grounded, fulfilled and gone with the flow.
The two things I encourage you to reflect and touch upon in your articles are:
- What does peace mean to you? How would you describe it physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually?
- How do you make peace with yourself and with the world during chaos?
As always, be as creative as you wish. There is no right, no wrong. There just is.
Before you go, I’d like to give our dear contributor Patrick a shout-out. As you may or may not know, he is a published author and has written several books that you can find here.
He was kind enough to send me short descriptions of two of his books:
Time structures our entire perception of the world, especially our relationships with other people. In our relationships, we recreate the past in the present moment rather than experience the present as it truly is. We do so to avoid the unknown, and as a result, we never allow ourselves to appreciate the full expression of another human being’s existence. To experience the present moment and to see others as they truly are, we must learn to bend time.
You can read more about this topic in his article: The Truly Radical Meaning of “Be Here Now”
2. A World Without Identity: The Sacred Task of Uniting Humanity
A World Without Identity offers an incisive diagnosis of the problems of our current political, economic, and legal systems, and a profound critique of the conventional ways we attempt to reform them. Our approach to social change suffers from the same flaw: the illusion that we are separate from each other and therefore must defend ourselves from others. In reality, we are all one; our lives are entirely interconnected and interdependent. Our collective mission is to embrace that truth, celebrate our differences, and manifest unity on a global scale.
Again, read his article The World Must Face Its Shadow for a better understanding of the topic.
Thank you Patrick for the wisdom you share with us!
