Choose it . . .

Today in my Beyond Layers class, Kim asks, "Where do you find peace?"

Oh, a question that I don't have to hesitate on, or do I?

My immediate response is, of course . . . at the beach!

  I could live there, on the beach falling asleep to the crashing waves and the sea breeze.

It's a place where I feel quiet, and still, and thoughtful.

And it's a place where my worries seem to melt away.

But what makes the beach, and the experience of the ocean so different.

Is is really where I find peace, or is it just simply where I allow myself to feel peaceful.

And is peace something you can even find?

Because if it is something you can find then it should also be something you can seek.

Which brings me to the thought that peace is a choice we make, and why sometimes we are at war

with each other and ourselves.
