find inner peace

I think I’ve changed a little to the better, while trying to find my inner peace again. In my imagination, inner peace behaves like water. If you’re in a troublesome environment, the water will make massive waves and you’ll eventually drown. But, if you’re in a peaceful and quiet environment, the water will be calm and you’ll have all the time in the world to overlook things and think clearly.

Since I’ve moved out of my mother’s place, I became gradually more quiet (think water ;-) I wouldn’t say I’m as carefree as when I was very young (about 3 years old), but pretty darn close to it. I know I can’t reach that level until I’ll have founded my own family, with my own little house, job, kids, pets etc.

But I’ve grown from the inside and I won’t derail as easily as before, because my roots are stronger now. I have great friends I can depend on, I have a lot of things that keep me busy and I have even more things on my mind I want to achieve in the future (just take a look at my list… ;-) Sure I have problems sometimes, who doesn’t? But there’s always a way ^{^^}

there was this little girl, who was the happiest person in the world. She was loved, therefore smiled a lot and had what grown ups call “inner peace”. Then, one day, the little three year-old girl sat in the living room with her little brother (one and a half year-old), watching television. She decided, out of no particular reason, to go to the kitchen and look what her parents were doing. She found that her parents had a furious argument, which ended with a slap from her father in her mother’s face. Her parents got divorced shortly after this incident.
Ever since that day, the little girl has lost her inner peace and decided to go on a journey to find it. She was wondering about how to achieve this goal, and a solution was quickly found: it wasn’t her toys, the food or anything else that can be bought with money that gave her inner peace, it was love and the assurance that there was always somebody who cared for her, and she for them.
