"Peace comes from within. Do not seek it without."
- Gautama Buddha
Dear Reader,
Can anything give us peace? Can any circumstances produce it?
The answer is certainly no. Even the calmest circumstances and the most relaxing environments are meaningless if the mind refuses to relax.
Worries, fears, and anxieties will be carried into any environment, unless we let go of them.
And that process of letting go begins in your mind.
It begins with focusing on the present moment.
It begins with being where you are, bringing your attention to right now.
Through your own focus, any environment may become a relaxing one.
Any situation may become a peaceful one.
Only if you approach it with a peaceful mind.
And a peaceful mind is one you must cultivate.
Today's Reflection:
How can you bring your focus to peace today? How can you let go of worries, stress, and anxieties?
Peace, love, and joy to you.
Your friend,
