• Daily Bliss – November 6

  

  An old one, but still so very relevant

  The angels remind us to let ourselves be outraged by injustice and anguished by untruth, and also to hold onto Peace and Love as the anchors by which change is born.

• Daily Bliss – July 7

  

  Light rising in her mind, 

  Peace flowing as she finds  

  Her way through hazy days  

  And sleepless nights, 

  Each bold, new step, 

  Each dream held tight  

  Open doors to so much more

• Daily Bliss – May 30

  

  Sliding down the rabbit hole

  Of wonderland dreams

  Inexplicable yet daring to come alive 

  Sucking in the air of every moment 

  Breathing out the joy and peace she craves 

  And she dances to the music only she can hear

  And what of peace,

  Which flowers in her fertile soil

  Inching ever closer to the sun,

  Aching for her return,

  A love not lost, but seeking 

  Casting shadows towards the dawn

  Feelings long to be free

  To soar like birds or butterflies 

  Not caged for her enjoyment 

  Or protection,

  Free to rain joy and cleansing 

  Down on all who thirst 

  for peace 

  On her heart, which thirsts for peace

• Daily Bliss – May 9

  

  She feels the stirring  

  The welling up inside  

  From deep within the darkest places  

  Which crave for light and beauty and peace 

  Gathering all this life has to offer  

  Into moments which propel her forward  

  Step by step by step

  What if she doesn’t need sadness 

  in order to teach her joy?

  What if she doesn’t need rejection 

  in order to understand love?

  What if she doesn’t need turmoil 

  in order to experience peace?

  What if she doesn’t need darkness 

  in order to see her light?

  I have been given peace,

  though it is often elusive and difficult to identify

  amidst the blessed chaos –

  sacred moments of wild laughter,

  piercing grief, hugs that linger to the bone –

  I trust that peace is there, embedded in the living of life

  She tries to imagine 

  Her way out  

  Her mind heavy with visions  

  Of peace, love, radical acceptance  

  But she knows  

  As she treads along the path  

  That one sacred foot in front of the other 

  Is the only way through

  If her life were suddenly 

  All sorted out

  Would everything be rosy,

  Would she walk through gardens 

  Thick with blooms smiling 

  Up at her,

  Taking in their fragrance as a gift,

  And would her rosy disposition 

  Mask her truth 

  That perfection does not propagate peace
