A simple peace within
Posted by elizabethgomez on October 2, 2009
For many years I have felt restless. It was not until recently that I have felt inner peace. So many times I found myself willing to give up, yet I realized healing can be found in the tenderness of pain.
I think I felt that by protecting myself from pain that I was being kind to myself. The truth was I was only becoming more fearful, and alienated. I experienced myself as being seperate from a whole. My family, friends, everyone. This feeling of separateness became like a prison for me.
When I finally let people in I found that there were people out there that had compassion, and empathy. I let those people in and what I found was I started to heal myself, I found the inner peace I so needed. People can change you. They can inspire you and help heal. And for all the complexities of life, joy can be found in a simple gesture of someone showing that they care.
Peace and love to all who enter here
