What brings you Peace, for heart & soul

Thank you everyone who shared your beautiful “deep peace" thoughts,

each and every word you left touched me so deeply.

I felt the connections strongly, read words that moved me,

Found writings written from the heart that bought tears to my eyes 

and peaceful thoughts that filled my heart to bursting.

Far to many words to share all here,
so I have gathered together a few of my most favourite
 I hope that they bring you as much joy as they did me.
*     *     * 

Here they are, some of your thoughts on what brings you Peace . . .

* Walking in the woods

* Hearing an owl call on a dark night

* Observing nature, looking, seeing, smelling, touching and feeling inside of bliss.

* Watching the sky, stars, clouds, falling stars, foxes.

* Standing on a cliff top, looking out over a wide expanse of blue.

* On a stormy night I lie in my cosy bed and listen to the sounds outside.

* Listening to the dawn chorus.

* Blowing kisses to the moon 

* Writing Small Stones, daily writing that capture a moment of focused noticing.

* Working in the garden, no thought beyond this plant, these roots, this branch.

* Walking, feeling the earth beneath my feet and a breeze on my face.

* My life at 65, freedom and time to pursue my loves.

* Moving tinkling silvery ripples of the many springs, streams and brooks.

* Being alone with my own thoughts.

* A good night's sleep - to wake up in the morning and all's right with the world.

* Knowing tomorrow will come, somewhere, for someone.

* The beauty of the music & the chance encounter of the starlings' ballet in the sky

 

*Knowing your place in the universe, realizing that the atoms and molecules that comprise of you're being were once the fiery guts of a star, the teeth of a T-rex, and the leaves of a Cyprus tree. 

 

* That feeling of being near someone without needing to impress them or fill the moment with much more than just being together. ~ by Mickie x
