9/15/2013 how to find PeaceHello Lovelies, This is the million dollar question to some hey! How do you find peace? Is it easy to find it? How do you know you found it? Most Important! How you make you sure you don't lose it again? When you have gone through a tough time like an illness or a loss of a loved one, it's easy to get stuck in your grief and fret that nothing will ever be the same again. I guess, that's life! You grow, you get older. You age, you get wiser! Life is an experience with good and BAD ones. I've been feeling quite at easy for a few weeks now and came to the conclusion that I have found peace again. Yesterday, I wanted to SHOUT it off the rooftops, as they say! Not to brag but to HELP others. It feels strange to feel like that but certainly NOT wrong. This is what closure feels like or according to Kübler Ross I have finally reached the "acceptance" stage that I thought I would never reach. Grief doesn't have a timeline or a fixed amount of time. It took me 4 years to feel 'okay' again. Now how did I get here? 3 things are IMPORTANT to gain peace again. That is HOME, FRIENDS and DREAMS. Sounds simple, does it? HOME A place where you can rest your soul. A place where you can be yourself. a place where you can fall apart and most of all NOT have to 'pretend' you're strong if you feel like falling apart. This can either be a HOME with family that loves you unconditionally or/and a Community On line or 'face to face' where you can be yourself again and express how you feel how silly it might be. FRIENDS The ones who respect you and NOT mock you. The ones where you can be YOURSELF and that make you shine. The ones who BELIEVE in you, when you didn't believe in yourself. This can again be either On line or 'face to face' friends. Don't worry, On line friends do 'exist' ! They are NOT imaginary as 'counsellors' claim they are. Sometimes, they HEAL you even more cause the 'confrontation' is NOT so big when you can hide behind a 'nickname' as a 'filter screen'. Is advisable for 'sensitive' and 'shy' peeps like myself. DREAMS The last key factor in this 'peace thingy' but certainly not the least is dreams. You're allowed to still have them even you're tainted or broken. Its the juice that keeps you alive. Its what keeps the peace in you and you can share your dreams with family and friends. Is what brings you back your dignity! So, please GO for your dreams, no matter where to lead too! L.O.V.E, Daz.
