✨ Peace is this moment, without thinking that it should be some other way… ✨

Hi friends. I came across this beautiful poem by Dorothy Hunt, and I felt called to share it with you. So often, we chase peace as if it’s somewhere outside of us—waiting in the future, in a different circumstance, in a different version of ourselves. But what if peace is simply this moment, without judgment?

🌿 Peace Is This Moment Without Judgment 🌿

"Do you think peace requires an end to war?
Or tigers eating only vegetables?

Does peace require an absence from your boss, your spouse, yourself?

Do you think peace will come some other place than here?
Some other time than Now?
In some other heart than yours?

Peace is this moment without judgment.
That is all.

This moment in the Heart-space where everything that is, is welcome.

Peace is this moment without thinking that it should be some other way,
That you should feel some other thing,
That your life should unfold according to your plans.

Peace is this moment without judgment,
This moment in the Heart-space where everything that is, is welcome."

...

Take a deep breath. Let this moment be enough. Let yourself be enough.

You are exactly where you need to be. 💙
