Simply, Peace

Today I feel at peace. A more calming peace than usual, and it is hard to really define why exactly. If you were to look at my calendar, and see all of the ink that is covering everyday of every week, it is hard to imagine how at peace I could possibly really feel. Regardless of the fact of my busy days that are ahead of me, I still feel at peace. 

The cold weather may be a slight contribution to my peaceful feeling. Odd to say, but I love how it just makes you want to get all cozied up with a blanket, and a nice hot cup of chamomile mint tea, and to get lost in a good book or movie. Cold weather also signals a definite "snuggle time" in your softest sweats. Baby, it may be cold outside, but I am enjoying the crisp, cold, chill, that is filling our weather air at the moment.


This peace could be associated with the happiness I get when taking care of my nephew. I have been helping my brother and sister-in-law watch him lately, and I enjoy every moment I get to spend with my little monster. Although peaceful feelings, and kids do not normally mix, with my nephew it is completely different. I love watching my nephew and the happiness and love he gives me. He is only 10 months old, but the simplicity of just him as a baby and what little tiny things make him smile just warms every inch of my inner being. When he goes down for a deep little baby slumber, the best is when he is just waking up. I love to see his happy little half sleepy smile as he reaches from the crib for me to grab him, ready to play again.

This peace could be because I am getting back into my service work with my church and my faith that I was very much involved in before I went away to school in San Francisco. Sacrificing your time and energy for helping others is always good for the soul. I encourage everybody to try doing something that can help better something or those around you. You will feel good for doing it, I promise.

This peace could be because I am very much, happy in love. I am in a great relationship, with an amazing guy, and love how much fun we have when we are together. He is supportive in all that I do in every way, and I am the same for him. We just take everything one day at a time, and whatever happens, happens. The important part is that we are always there for one another, and of course love and care for each other.

This peace could all just simply be a calming, regular, peaceful feeling. I am happy, I am content, I am grateful, and feeling... at peace. Wherever this inner peace is stemming from, I am embracing it. I hope that you all as well try to take some time and find some inner peace. You never know where you'll find that tranquil inner peace within.

May peace, be with you.
