life obstacles

Shut out all the noise
And confusion in the world
Find stillness within

Beneath life's tumult
A secret peace is present
Nothing can destroy 

It starts with yourself
Come to terms with what life brings
Stop fighting what is

Accept and let go
Trust in the path unfolding
Stepping stone by stone

There is hope and love
Shining the light on your way
From your Middle Ground

    Ah those stepping stones Val,
    some I miss, then some found,
    until I find my middle ground.
    Great verse dear lady 😀 ❤️ 🙏🏽 🦋

    A poem of wisdom. This stanza in particular calls to me today,
    It starts with yourself
    Come to terms with what life brings
    Stop fighting what is

    When I stop fighting what is, I always experience a sense of freedom to breathe.

    Thank you, Val.
