The Journey (Printed Softcover)

Many strive to find peace. To achieve that ultimate state of harmony with all. It can be very simple and yet many make it complex. First be at peace with yourself. That is foremost. For if you have no peace with yourself, then you will look outside yourself to bring you peace. This is an impossibility. Peace begets peace. Be at peace with yourself and then you will be at peace with all things and all things will be at peace with you. Then the world will be at peace. For as the micro so is the macro. An individual is part of the whole and the whole is reflected in the individual. One affects the other, one is the other. How to achieve inner peace? Start by accepting yourself in the moment. Right now in this moment you are just as you need to be ~ perfect. A moment of peace with yourself. Stop as many times as you want during the day to be at peace with yourself. Then the moments will eventually string together as hours, then a day, then days, then before you realize it, you will be at peace with yourself in all the moments. It is not necessary to strive for this peace. In fact striving gets you quickly out of peace since you think the present circumstance is wrong. Really it is a letting go of all the shoulds and musts and need tos and wants. Peace is just allowing and resting in the place of everything is as it is without judgment. Let Peace be in you and Peace will surround you. Be at Peace with every part of you. Start small with one tiny aspect if you need to then gradually include more and more of you until you are completely at peace with your body and mind. Your world will be a vastly different place when you are at peace within yourself completely. You will come full circle and you will see the place you are standing with new eyes, hear with new ears ~ everything will be clearer. And you will be in harmony with all.
May Peace be in You and You in Peace.
