“Lose yourself in nature and find peace.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson
This week Tina, of Travels and Trifles, suggests we “take Ann-Christine’s challenge (from last week) one step further, and address the ways we’ve learned to Find Peace in today’s ever-more busy world.”
Experts are in universal agreement on the importance of Finding Inner Peace, a few suggestions are:
- Spend Time in Nature. When you spend time in nature, like taking short walks or appreciating nature, you may find serenity.
- Don’t Let Your Past Mistakes Define You.
- Take Responsibility for Your Actions.
- Be Grateful.
- Meditate or practice mental silence.
- Practice Acceptance and Contentment.
The picture below is of the Atlantic Ocean and sky on Kiawah Island, SC. Some evenings everything around is filled with spectular colors. This is a wonderful place to feel the peaceful, calming effects of the ocean along with the vivid colors from nature.
In Maine the Atlantic Ocean and sky is equally as beautiful with it’s rocky coastline and wildlife.
A few other places I enjoy going to Find Peace.
“Colors are the smiles of nature.” – Leigh Hunt
“Trees listen to the breeze; and then, rustle its voice so beautifully.” – Summer Crosby & Angie Weiland-Crosby
Being at Peace in life also includes laughter, being kind to others and taking a break from social media. The Golden Rule is “Treat others the way you want to be treated.”
Hope you have enjoyed seeing these pictures and I’ll close by share a familiar quote:
“Today, give a stranger one of your smiles. It might be the only sunshine they see all day.” – Catherine Pulsifer
