True peace

True internal peace and deep-rooted joy, not the over-rated buzz of happiness, comes from letting go.

Let go of criticism, let go of hate, let go of judgement, let go what people think, let go of the past, let go of what others say that hurt, let go of anything that will only bring negativity, let go, let go……and let go.

It is like taking weights of our shoulders for everything we let go of.

Make choices out of love, make choices that matter to our lives going forward.

Peace comes from letting go of controlling things, all of which, other than ourselves, is out of our control.

When we reach inner peace with ourselves and the world then life truly begins.

Don’t be held up by things that truly don’t matter.

My life is nothing


My life is nothing among the billions of lives.

My life matters to maybe just a small few among the billions.

Why then do we worry so much what others think?

If we matter to them, they will not reproach us or criticise or judge us. If they do, then perhaps they aren’t the people for our lives.

The rest, who we do not matter to, are of no importance.

When I end my journey what will be hard to overcome is what I didn’t do because of the fear of what others might have thought.

Do what matters, do it for the people who matter and, most importantly, that includes ourselves.

Do it now.
