It occurred to me early this morning that the state of the world nowadays is in a fine fix. Not that the world has suddenly run amok nor that my brain is just kicking it in gear but rather that it occurred to me as I realized how at peace I am, as of late. Once you clear the turmoil from your own brain and disruptive people and things from your life, you can see how messed up everything else is. The revelation this morning made me want to bottle up this peace and use it as a vaccine for turmoil.
As I stood watching the sky redden with the coming of dawn, the Magic of the Bayou washed over me and made me wish I could share this enchanting euphoria with everyone. Why shouldn't others delight in tranquility? Well, that lasted just about five minutes when another revelation hit me. A lot of people revel in their self-righteous agitation. Too many feel that they are right, everybody else is wrong and if you have an opinion, it offends! To them, I say..."Keep it!" I do not want it! I am too busy loving a peaceful, happy life to worry about everybody's hissy fits.
Folks, find your own magic place somewhere and be spellbound by the peace and tranquility. Leave behind the chaos. It all begins within you...within me. The only way things are going to get any better is by a concentrated effort of all people. First step...distance yourself from the tempest. Second step...find the peace within yourself. Third step...share that peace. Spread it around like pixie dust. It sounds easy but that first step is a doozy. It takes a lot of strength to pull away. You can do it! Be happy.
