Today, September 21, is
International Day of Peace.
Think about it; not so much
the actual date, but think
about peace.
World Peace.
Inner Peace.
Peace amongst people.
People amidst peace.
International Day of Peace
was established in 1981 by
the United Nations.
This day is important, but
shouldn’t every day be about
peace?
Is it possible?
Think about it.

“If everyone demanded peace
instead of another television set,
then there would be peace.”
-John Lennon
Can each everyday experience
provide you with a lesson?
Learning is a lifetime process.
If we only knew yesterday what
we will discover next week, we
may then have a better idea.
What will you learn today?

where have I been?
my mind takes me
places, now and then,
intermittent stops
between cities where
I have been and
somewhere I have
never traveled.
only in dreams
have these realities
happened.
where can I go?

We won’t admit
we share the pain.
We tell ourselves
again and again
we are different.
We don’t know
what anyone feels,
or how anyone
deals with this now.
We can’t remember.
We don’t know
how to behave
like we used to.

Trust what you must, but
be wary of your volition.
Things are rarely as
they appear.
Yield to your intuition.
Your choices.
You must. Trust.
Instinct.
