Living in Peace

Choose Inner Peace.
Nothing is worth losing your inner peace.
Take action as circumstances require,
but never surrender your inner peace.
Stop. Breathe deeply.
Close your eyes and breathe deeply again.
Then, and only then, take action -
from a peaceful heart.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace.
- St. Francis of Assisi

The simplification of life is one of the steps to inner peace.
A persistent simplification will create an inner and outer well-being
that places harmony in one's life.
- Peace Pilgrim

God's voice is still and quiet and easily buried under an avalanche of clamor.
- Charles Stanley

We can never obtain peace in the outer world
until we make peace with ourselves.
- Dalai Lama

No one can find inner peace except by working,
not in a self-centered way, but for the whole human family.
- Peace Pilgrim

Breathe; let go; relax; forgive.
- Mary Anne Radmacher

The world has always been in an uproar, and it always will be.
Choose Peace. Choose to live with Peace.
Choose to interact peacefully with everyone -
especially those whose instinct is not to be peaceful.

Today's affirmation:
I am Counterpoint to the Clamor of the World.
