In Search of Inner Peace

By boyhidingintree written 12/5/07 3:17 PM, published 12/6/07 2:52 AM

I rarely experience inner peace, but it seems I'm always in search of it. Inner peace to me means being at peace with oneself, the past, the present and the uncertainty of what lies ahead. I'm not there yet, but hopefully one day I will be. A lot of people lead such busy lives there's not a moment's peace in the day, no time to think or feel, to really make use of the five senses. I feel the closest to inner peace when I'm out in the country, alone or with my dog. The wide open space, the elements, the sky, the stillness, the solitude. It is also where I feel the closest to being me, or what I can be if I just keep trying. I treasure those moments and hope to someday make a home there.
