Peace Progress

My neighbor apologized profusely for her messy yard; a giant oak took out a retaining wall and everything was in the process of being demolished. "No worries," I said. "It's a work in progress just like me! Sometimes I feel like your yard looks. Mostly, though, I'm focused on how it looks when I've cleaned up the mess."

Peace is a work in progress. Focus on the result. It's waaaay more Peaceful!

Love,
Darlene

Pssst! Peace Tuesday is taking a 3 week hiatus. See you June 7th!

The Most Powerful Thing.................

Absolutely, positively, without exception, THE single MOST POWERFUL THING you can do for Peace is simple...............DECLARE THAT IT'S POSSIBLE and mean it! Works best if you do it daily. Kinda like a Peace vitamin.

I'll bet you thought the answer involved an advanced degree in nuclear physics. Silly you!

A "to be" List!

Do you have a "to do" list? A long one?

How about a "to be" list? This would be a list of all the ways you are committed to being this day, this week, this year, this lifetime and could include...... joyous, focused, intentional, responsible, gracious, generous, appreciative, excited, curious, outrageous, supportive, sourcing, at cause, caring, energized, promising, empowered, empowering, in the moment, present, awake, aware, inspired, on fire, courageous, inviting, grounded, effortless, reinventing, straight, without limits, discovering, authentic, brilliant, connected, risking, accepting, in integrity, connected, playful, wise, accepting, allowing, satisfied, loving, peaceful, trusting, vulnerable, complete, unattached, extraordinary, expectant, fun, leader, spirit, listening, playful, bodacious, rock and roll, celebrating, beauty, committed, inspired, ready, open, of service and on and on.

I wonder which list is more useful? Fun? Inviting? Hmmmmmmm? I wonder which one might lead you to Peace? Hmmmmmm? I wonder?

Nothing is lost

Energy is never lost; merely transformed. The energy of Newton's falling apple is transformed into kinetic energy shifting its molecules at impact, continuing to shift them long after.

So too with Peace! Peace is merely another form of energy. When you rest in this energy it transforms you, now and long after. When you bring Peace energy to others it can transform them, now and long after.

So use it! You can't lose it!

To Serve Peace........................

When your own tummy rumbles for Peace, consider that it is a meal you need to serve another. Peace is a dish best served by service.

Be sure to add a dollop of love; tastes like butter, without the calories. Peace simply adores that. Yummmmmm!

Love,

The Incredible Lightness of.........

What do light, love, amazement, joy, inspiration, possibility, curiosity, playfulness, spirit, laughter, trust, wisdom and miracles have in common?

No mass! Yet, life without them is heavy! Go figure.

Guess what else has no mass YET comes directly from these lighter than anything qualities of being?

PEACE!

And who says something from nothing is nothing?

Love,
Darlene
