I used to thrive in the hustle-n-bustle of life and was often the girl others would call for where to go and what to do. Young and living life to the fullest, you want to experience everything.
That is a season.
Life shifts.
At the tap of your fingertip you can find hundreds of activities and events going on locally in every city. Have an interest? There is an event.
That's fabulous and fun! Until you partake in so much of it the sensationalism is gone. It's expensive and you're worn out from having fun. Addicted to sensationalism, worn out from having fun? Absolutely.
When you've searched to fill your insatiable soul, but it cannot be found in thrills and the noise of life.
Peace is when your soul is happy and content exactly where you are and there is no other place you'd rather be.
When you can sit and watch television and say, "Thank you, God."
Riding bikes on the towpath on a summer day and suddenly you realize how much you missed it, it is exactly what you longed for, and it's perfect. "Thank you, God."
Put me in nature.
Put me on a beach with the sunrise and a cup of coffee and the scent of the mighty ocean.
Let me drive through the mountains in breathtaking splendor.
Let me sit by the water with a book in the sunshine or glide across the water on a paddle board of a calm lake with the only sounds being the birds in the air and the gentle splash of the water from the oar.
Surround me in the beauty of nature and my soul is refreshed.
