awake | alive | present

creating my own peace


“Peace is present right here and now, in ourselves and in everything we do and see. Every breath we take, every step we take, can be filled with peace, joy, and serenity. The question is whether or not we are in touch with it. We need only to be awake, alive in the present moment.” ~Thich Nhat Hahn

I’ve been creating peace of late rather than waiting for it to appear.

Noticing what brings me both deeper and higher:

biking
singing
dancing
helping
loving
writing
communing
laughing
snuggling
accepting
feeling
forgiving
blessing

A good-enough list for now.

In the past 6 weeks 4 exes and one sorta-kinda ex have come popping back up into my life to either say hi, tell me they still love me or they “want” me. Okay, Universe. I have passed the damned test. I have stayed true to myself and my heart. I have not told them…
