* Haiku – be at peace

inner peace~

Can we be at peace

With ourselves and with others?

Let go of judgments.

~

Stop contributing

to the rising storm of fear

that comes from the mind.

~

Let go of the thoughts

that undermine heart and soul.

Find Your Middle Ground.

~

More now than ever

Connect inwards with the breath.

This is where peace lies.

~

End the turmoil now

Come home to the peace within

And become the change.

~

  7. Beautiful haiku! I don’t know how to make that word plural! I’m working on recognizing the triggers, and realizing that they are triggers because of something inside me! That’s a work in progress, and probably always will be for a Type A control freak like me! 🙂
