Let There Be Peace

With so much of the world in chaos, war, pain and destruction it is difficult to function, let alone find a place of peace. Often times it feels as if our world will simply implode and today I have no magic potion, no words of wisdom, no cliches, no “10 things to do” to change the way things are.

If somehow, in the chaos of it all, we could find a place – big or small – that was our own alone. A place that brought us temporary contentment, that allowed us to take a breath and let things go, if even for a moment.

If we could use that moment to take in the deep breath of life and hold it in our souls, letting it fill the cracks and broken pieces that pierce our well being. The breath that heals our heart and gives us strength to see good in the world again.

In the coming weeks, I hope that each of us finds a moment, no matter how small, to experience some peace and take that breath we so desperately need.
