I am a proponent of peace within the individual as a means to world peace.We create peace within by honoring ourselves~ body, mind and soul. How do we honor ourselves? We stop blaming and dare, dare to take responsibility for our own lives. We stop living at 100 miles per hour and take needed, over due rest. We bother to feed our bodies balanced, nutritious foods. We stop taking way too many things way too seriously and we make time for play. We stop allowing ourselves to be told what to do and we follow the wisdom of our own instincts. We fall down and we make the choice to get up. We laugh. We sing. We forgive ourselves.
We make love our first priority.
Peace will always follow.
Peace rock on marble~ hearts of rose quartz, jade, aventurine, sodalite, amethyst, goldstone, picture jasper, yellow calcite and clear quartz. Goddess pendants of turquoise, a stone renowned for bestowing peace of mind. A small peek at my vast collection of semi-precious tumbled stones.
Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI too believe that peace starts with the individual.
I love it! Peace to you Dear One...
ReplyDeleteYes, peace will follow love. Lovely and inspiring post. Your rock mandala is sweet. Nice to meet you through your blog. A friend thought I might like to join your rock posts, I take so many photos of rocks. Is it just for this week, or every Monday? Thanks,
