I sat by the lake and the wind caressed my face.
I played with my hands and listened to nature.
I surrounded myself with quietness.
The Lake lady appeared.
She sat beside me and asked,
‘Are you troubled?’
‘No, I’m not,’
I replied with a vigorous shake of my head.
‘I was looking for peace,’ I added.
‘Only you can give yourself peace,’ She said
‘Yeah, I know and now I have it,’ I told her.
‘It’s noisy out there,’ she observed, and her eyes looked sad.
‘I don’t allow the noise get to me, I have found my peace.’ I said.
‘You’re the lucky one,’
‘There’s no such thing as luck, I decide to be at peace with myself
and the world I live in. It’s a beautiful world, I only need to open my eyes
and see.’
We listened to the sound of the lake.
And the mountains whisper,
‘Peace.’
This ‘poetic thought’ is symbolic, I hope you can get the true meaning. A place of peace is very easy. You’re the master of your destiny, you decide what course your life takes. You can have peace, if you want.
Have a nice weekend dear friends… Live well!
Much love, always. 🙂

Missed you too Seyi dear. I travelled for work, and couldn’t really access internet; thus my absence from blogosphere 🙂
If I were the “master” of my own destiny……I would choose to love sin and hate God. The only hope for real peace…… is when the Prince of Peace raised this poor dead sinner to life!
Great post, it invokes such tranquil feelings! Thanks
🙂 🙂
May the peace of God that passes all understanding keep our minds and hearts in Christ Jesus. Wonderful post, Seyi 🙂
Amen! Thank you Celestine, I appreciate you!
