Today I celebrate life, 53 years of them, hopefully at least 47 more… I would like to live to 100. Maybe to see my boys mature into vibrant men of this world, maybe to experience all I can before this breath of a life catapults me into the next one. Maybe at 100 years old I won’t be doing much catapulting…
Either way I am at peace… at rest. I often say to people as I depart from them, “Rest in Peace!” I don’t usually get a favorable response, wonder why? What other rest is there? Oh yeah… the ones the world offers us, fear… stress… worry… frustration… anger… we know the rest of them.
I would rather rest in peace… and calm, relaxation, comfort, harmony, serenity, tranquility… right now… right here!
I have found it, I have found Him… and if I don’t drift too far away, I can get back there pretty quick. There’s no place like home…
