Peace

Peace to me means accepting what is. When we look for something better, richer, and more amazing we are not present for what we already have.

I am keeping this post simple so you may ponder what this means to you. How can you be more peaceful in your own lives?

The other day a woman was frustrated in the outdoor pool I swim in because two people turned her down to share their lanes. When she asked me and I said sure she was relieved. We got talking and in the end, I said to her “Sometimes we have to remain calm in the face of distress to see why this happened” We both agreed that we would have never met if these two forces hadn’t come into play.

So today and every day, practice peace. Accept what is with the knowing that somehow it’s just part of a bigger picture.

Below is one of my favorite paintings that I created Titled “Storm on the Mangroves”

Find your peace in your heart and live there.
