Personal Peace, Baby!!!
March 31st 2009 12:45
Now, more than ever, people are missing something they are often unable to even identify. Because it is easier to describe ‘all that is bad’ in our lives—the unfulfilled relationship; the ongoing financial stress; the never feeling good enough; the sense of being victimized by a battery of people, places, things, and even circumstances—our eyes are often taken off the target. Away from that which is available right here, right now, in the present. Even our modern day gurus and professed authorities speak more to pathology, dysfunction, disability, and maintaining a problem-oriented focus while attempting to help individuals clarify and mentally organize out of whatever ongoing difficulty they are experiencing. We psychologically diagnose, politically contest, financially bankrupt, and spiritually long for something unseen. All in service to finding something we know is missing yet continue to detour and distract from.
The real issue?!? What is it that we truly wish for? Couched underneath the social acceptance, financial security, political correctness, social standing, and more, what is primary seems to be Personal Peace. And, paradoxically, it can be a long and confusing path.
In the spirit of ferreting out the 'real issue', I humbly ask you, of blog-world, to answer this one simple question:
First Name:_____________ Gender:__________ Age:_____
Please describe, in one to five sentences, what Personal Peace means to you as an individual:
Again, thank you for contributing to this emerging movement.
In peace,
