Peace within

Sometimes we pray for peace,
as if peace is a gift that comes from far away.

We wish each other peace, sometimes without even thinking;
without even sending the thought of peace out.

Our Creator, and if you do not believe in a creator, the Universe,
has created our world around us in such a way
that peace is naturally present, most of the time for most of us.

If we walk in nature, if we sit in our room, If we do our work,
peace is all around us, it surrounds us in the air,
it even enters our lungs, flows through our veins.

Once we become aware that peace is not something far from us
but that most of the time we bathe in peace,
and once we manage to consciously experience peace,
we will value it sooo much that we will not let little things
make us so upset that we disturb the peace for ourselves and for others.

If during our prayers we become a little bit more aware of that,
our prayers will have brought us a little closer to our Creator,
to that creative Power in the Universe.

Our prayers will give us a bit more peace,
a bit more patience, if we manage to truly value that peace,
a bit more love, a bit more honesty, a bit more of all good things.

Peace is all around us;
let the peace enter our body,
let the peace enter our mind,
let the peace enter our heart and our soul.

May the Peace of our Creator be with you in the coming seconds,
the coming minutes, the coming day, the coming week, the coming month, ...
