A plethora of responses came to mind when reading the question, but I'll post the first one, which was a visual that momentarily took me away from this keyboard....
Straddling my sport bike (aka "crotch rocket"), wearing a full-faced helmet with full riding gear covering every inch of my body (meaning I'm privately passing through the world and those around me without a single regard to gender, race, age, identifying demographics, etc., etc... all people know is that I'm a human being, which is how I wish to be seen!), hauling down an open road. I feel the temperature changes and smell the cow crap and feel like I'm *in* the world, rather than an on-looker, and my mind finds a peaceful cadence with the jet-like engine between my legs. Yeah, I know, sheer terror for some is utterly peaceful for me. Maybe this is why there is no place - big or small - I haven't traveled on two wheels in the US and Canada.  (<--- double peace!)

Today I'm cleaning and organizing my apartment. This is a job I've decided to do over the three-day weekend. Throwing things out always helps me, and the smell of a nice, clean, scrubbed house. Mmmmm.
I took a break to have some hot soup, which always feels good. Later, I think I'll have Chinese. It occurred to me that I want to make this year one of finding peace-peace living within myself, and radiating outward from myself. It's in several areas-feeling at ease in my skin (finally), spiritually, emotionally. I believe it's a more easily defined goal than "happy". Certainly, I want to attract someone who is also at peace, so I have to be that way myself. I believe it's possible to be at peace, and yet be passionate and excited. In fact, I think stress and worry-anything not of peace-"blocks" real passion and joy. I don't want blocks  .

Waking up before anyone else and feeling the love of Miss Pink and the furbabies as they sleep and dream. Hearing the faint breathing of my Pack all warm, and snuggly and safe in our little piece of heaven that is given to us each day before the demands of the outside world takes precedence for a while.

As of late, what give me peace is the ability to see peoples actions as belonging to them; an expression of who they are, and what lies in their hearts. Even if they call it by my name, does not mean it belongs to me. Kind of like watching an act in a play. When someones behavior is really ugly it brings me peace to be able to see it's just them, showing me who they are.......BOUNDARIES

Being on the lake or river fishing
Walking on the beach, listening to and feeling the pull of the tides as they roll in and back out again. An ice cream cone Driving down a long winding dirt road out in the country.

Quite mornings with coffee and hearing my mocking bird in the backyard...so happy with himself.
Sitting on a beach...any beach at sunset by myself. Feeling the warm wind and salt on my lips. That is my grounding spot. Knowing my family and friends are all ok and doing great. Job security. Making plans for more remodeling getting done. Having a clean house and being able to just rest.

Knowing he is the calm in my swirling storm...
My dogs sleeping peacefully... My elderly dog finally resting peacefully... Him kissing my lips and stroking my hair as I fall asleep... Waking up with him beside me sleeping beautifully... Kissing his parted lips as he sleeps and I leave for work... Talking to an old friend I have not been in contact with for a while...

What gives me peace...
*Smoking my pipe and cigars;
*Swimming; *Laughing with friends and family of choice; *Eating steamed crabs with friends and family of choice; *Sitting on my deck with a cup of coffee, listening to the birds singing, my squirrels running around hunting for their peanuts, and Dino snoring away. |
