Elusive peace

What brings you peace?

If it’s likes, shares, and comments, then I’m afraid that peace escapes you too.

Reconnecting with the human condition seems to get more difficult by the day with the filters of online life shaping our perceptions and opinions of the struggles or triumphs of others.

Does an authentic human experience still exist in a connected world?

Peace grows ever more elusive when connecting with others is the only soul food you have.

They talk of dopamine and convince you that your emptiness or your fulfilment lies in chemical balances because they themselves lack the appreciation of sincere human connection.

Appreciating the quiet moments becomes more difficult when we lose sight of the value of silence.

The absence of clutter.

The presence of endearing company.

Finding peace in solitude is a gift, and a skill that appears to have been lost to the madness of this world.

Take time to recede, to allow your very valid concerns and urgencies to suspend its calling for long enough to let the breath reach your soul.

When last did you lose yourself in the gentle throb of your own pulse?
