Seek That Peace - A Poem by M.N. Hopkins



Seek That Peace

Seek that peace.

That peace that awaits all whom be but still and at rest.

Seek an inner sanctuary.

That springs forth as a breathe.

As a whisper.

As a feeling of deep contentment.

A contentment that comes from being in the now.

For now is real.

Past and future are mere constructs of the human ego.

Be in the present moment and feel at ease.

Be in the present moment and feel the breathe of living.

Be in the present moment and feel loved.

Be in the present moment and be love incarnate in a human form.

Be in the present and be free of both past and future.

Now be still and be at peace.

Thanks for your words!

I read it today with unconscious need for it, and I felt that they touched within me. It was that "something" in my chest woke up, or rather I became conscious about that stirred up my emotions. "Something" like an inner "carer" who didn't say anything, but a knowing appeared in my mind - "you are loved, you are cared for". And even more important I knew that ALL of us have the exactly same "being" within our hearts, and all of us are exactly as much loved, and there is truly nothing else we need, for we have all love we need from our "caretaker" within our hearts.

Wish you a nice day :-)
Regards
