It’s not easy but it’s possible to find a peaceful state of mind, even when all around you is chaotic and turbulent. It can feel like fighting your way through to the eye of the storm and then taking it easy, watching it all swirl around you. Observe quietly. Don’t engage. Stay centred. You are the centre of your universe.
I picture each of us being like an orchestra. With some people, you find harmony, and you’re in tune with them. Others, it’s a different vibration, and it’s discordant. You’re playing different instruments in different keys. Maybe it’s a question of timing. But you are your own maestro. You can conduct each instrument in your orchestra, when to be loud, when to quieten, speed up, slow down, stop, resume … And if someone comes in banging their drum, totally out of synch with your song, well, we don’t need to lose our harmony (and peace) because of one ‘out of tune’ instrument. We can remove it from our orchestra. They can go and find somewhere else to bang their drum!
Peace comes from trusting all will be well. This is the peace that cannot be taken from you. So many things we fear, never come to pass. We can waste precious time worrying. We imagine all kinds of worst case scenarios. When traumatised, we think it absolutes like ‘never’ ‘it’s over’ and a whole lot of negative emotions too. We tend to project our past experiences into the future. If we’re not careful, we can draw what we fear closer to us. So imagine something better. Face your fears if they need dealing with in this moment, or else focus on something else. Read the Serenity Prayer. There is also immense peace in knowing you are not alone. Live with the values you want to see in the world, then you will empower what you love. Peace is possible in moments even when there’s a lot of negativity, worry and fear. It’s similar to feeling full of grief, but still be able to laugh at something funny. We can see the madness and cruelty in the world, but also the beauty and harmony.
