That's Peace.

Artist | Unknown

I keep reminding myself to forget, I guess some scars are so deep that even when they heal you feel the pain as if it were happening all over again.  The trauma keeps the experience alive.  The experience keeps the feeling alive.  And the feelings are where the memories thrive.

But I keep reminding myself I've forgiven, I guess some betrayal cuts so deep that even though you've decide to move forward the fear is always that the thing that you left behind is lurking in front of you, in plain sight. 

How would you know, when what went wrong was feeling just right?

However, I keep accepting that I am in control. 

I trust that things will work out exactly as they should.  

I honor my decisions and I do not expect the outcome.  

What is for me, has always been for me.  

Every lesson was needed to develop my senses in that area.  

I cannot carry hate for the way that I learned those lessons.  EVERYTHING works for my good.  All lessons, the ones that create joy are equally as blessed as the ones that cause pain.  

I've made peace that some of the people I love will have no other choice than to teach me lessons that I may not like to learn through them.  

That's peace. 

Knowing you cannot control others, that is the light.  Lessons provided by those we love inspire the most impactful change in our lives.  That is the space where you find the peace.

That is the peace.
The lesson; the lessons are where the peace lives.

Acceptance is peace.

That's peace.
