Staying At Peace In This Crazy World

I did several blogs last month, but did not bother to post them. So here I am today posting... Enjoy this thrilling Thursday!

Blog City - Day 1961

Prompt: What things in life make you feel at peace?

Being in the moment and being with my cats. Both of those things fall into the same category. Fear tends to lurk in the 'should have' pasts or the 'must do' futures. It plays tricks with your mind and makes you come up with all sorts of scenarios that may not even happen. Staying in the present and breathing deeply helps to qualm those spikes in terror and settle you into the present - which is a gift of time. Moment by moment. Breath by breath. Focus on the right now. Focus on the what you can do in this moment and let the worry and fear fall away. Don't let them in. They will destroy your peace - much like Thing 1 and Thing 2 from Dr. Seuss's Cat In The Hat. Stay grounded in the moment and live in peace one step at a time.
