The sun sets on another day…
The weather is changing. A cool breeze slid across my face and caressed me like a brutal old friend that I hadn’t seen in a while. The hairs on the back of my neck stood up as a chill ran across me, but it was good as the sunlight sprayed across the line then disappeared in the trees. As the sky changed colors and slowly faded away, I knew that the seasons would soon change.
I don’t live in the city. I think it would be quite the shock to me anymore. I have lived in both the city and the country, but I find the country to be far more peaceful. Tonight is a perfect example as I said outside watching the world go round and laughing all that I can. There is no sound except for a few birds in the background and the rustling of leaves in the trees.
A long time ago someone told me that that all they wanted out of life was peace. Peace eluded me for so long and often peace was just a pipe dream as the chaos crashed in upon me and I wondered what every moment would bring. Then there was a crescendo and somewhere in the midst of it all I found a balance again. Balance is a nifty thing and I think it leads us more towards peace than peace does. After all you cannot truly understand peace if you don’t understand the opposite of peace. I certainly understood that.
Now I find myself aware of peace and thinking of the moment that are so fantastic that they will lead me forward into something far better. In the end I’ll just enjoy it and redefine my peace each day.
Do you have peace? Do you even want peace? What is that one thing that finds you calm and leads you into another moment? I hope you find it and I hope the peace that you want becomes yours.
So as the sun sets on another day, peace sounds like a fun thing right now, and I think I’ll watch the stars for a few minutes and let the cool air calm my soul. I hope you can find peace with me, and enjoy life every day, no matter what.
Sleep sweet, love life, and wooha…
