Eid II/ Creed II

Hugs for Haiti.

First I spent the morning searching for peace of mind and strength. But the more you seek some things, the less likely you are to find them. Peace and calm are like that. You have to let them be. At least, that's how it works for me.

On my evening walk, I looked back and saw that they had found me. While I was going about my business in my usual way, peace and strength flooded my day and filled me with satisfaction.

So the next bit is
Promise yourself to talk health, happiness and prosperity to every person you meet.
I'll see how that goes tomorrow.

Es hat funktioniert. Ich habe Frieden gefunden, oder vielmehr, der Friede fand mich. Erstaunlich wie einfach es ist. Hurra!

Creed I/ Eid

Hugs for Haiti!

The Optimist's Creed begins like this:
Promise yourself
to be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind.

It's a promise of strength and peace. But it's inner strength and inner peace, not the stuff that puts on a show for others. The best way to fulfil this is to meditate. I need to anchor myself to that peaceful place inside.

Words subside as thoughts flow by.

Es gibt 12 Schritte, wie bei viel anderen Dingern. Und der erste Schritt ist den inneren Frieden zu finden. Om. ;-)) Ich bin so stark, dass mich nichts aus dem Lot bringt. Hm. Mal sehen.

Meine ersten Gedanken heute morgen waren es nicht . Trotz aller Mühe denke ich immer noch an Sachen, die andere angeblich machen. Dabei liegt die Verantwortung bei mir. Wenn ich Frieden will, muss ich friedlich werden.
