find inner peace

I am not peaceful, I never have been. I am actually full of turmiol and anger. I have no inner peace and I am always so jealous of people who have inner peace and I wish I had some of that as well.

funny, this is something i thought it would be very hard to achieve and i’m slowly achieving this now. i can truly say i’m achieving it. i feel joy inside of me, a huge joy of living [specially in sunny days :)] i think i’m getting there. i can’t say it’s been easy cause i had to struggle with myself, my weaknesses, my pride and stuff, but it’s worth at the end.

somethings i’ll keep in ind for next month:

• learn to meditate
• start practicing yoga
• forgive and forget

“A master at the art of living makes no distinction between his work and his play, his labor and his leisure, his mind and his body, his education and his recreation, his love and his religion – he hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues with excellence what he is about and leaves others to determine, whether he is working or playing. He himself always knows, he is doing both.” – Wilfred A. Peterson

i’m really glad i’ve started this journey to find inner peace, my inner self, my inner me. i’ve found love and a beautiful person inside, that was locked, afraid of the world. i taught her to not fear the world and to live and to love. i really think i’m finding myself, little by little and opening space for true love and peace. and it’s been amazing. really.

some things i’ll keep in mind for next month:

• grow spiritually
• learn to meditate
• practice yoga
• begin my day with positive affirmations

I’ve noticed that for some reason or another… many of us, including myself, on this site seem to be less active than we used to be… those of us who have been on here for a while. Some of us seem to be having a hard time. I’ve seen several people that I am subscribed to come and go (and sometimes come back again). It’s sad that life gets us down sometimes to the point where we close up and don’t let anyone in… or whatever. I vow not to let this happen to me… and I vow to be more supportive of those I’ve come to admire so much on this site. Life is too short not to be true to ourselves, not to be happy… and it’s too precious to live it alone.

i have so many goals. sometimes i think i can achieve them all only with my will power and strength. but that makes me more anxious to achieve them all and i screw it all up.

the key is to relax and have more faith in me and in God. everything will be fine.

i’m slowly finding inner peace, finding my inner self and i’m loving this journey.

finding inner peace is not that easy. specially when you give too much credit to what’s going on outside and forget about what’s going on inside. so you get sick and you feel bad about what you’ve done, then you get better and do it all over again. well, i’m conscious about that now, about the importance that we have to give to ourselves, to our body, to our mind and i feel great about myself.
