Journey to Peace

“Peace is a journey of a thousand miles and it must be taken one step at a time.” -Lyndon B. Johnson

This quote is the perfect follow-up to my last post, Solitude is a process. I have a Sunday Solitude that has been developed for years into a day that gently flows me back to myself. When I tell you that everything is trying to tear you away from your most important connection, I mean everything. We have to set time aside to nourish our mind, body, and soul. Some of us have spent years learning to set boundaries. We spend time finding hobbies and making sure we nourish ourselves with good, healthy things. Now it’s time to incorporate that peace you worked so hard for into your solitude. If I had to find simpler words to explain what solitude brings you, it’s growing peace.

Do you take intentional solitude? Beach, nature walks, candlelit baths?

Jayne is a writer. On her free time she likes to be with her family hiking outdoors and traveling. New England is her home and place of birth. When asked what she wants to teach the world she replied, "Don't stop searching. Too many times, in my old life, I put my search aside for more 'important matters.' I didn't realize the thing I was searching for held what was most important; my soul purpose." Jayne works daily on improving her craft and at times can get down on herself, but her favorite morning mantra is "It's a new day." and that's what she strives to start with.
