- standing in my kitchen
- heating up hot cocoa
- cleaning my glasstop stove
- listening to 'French Cafe' on Pandora
- while watching my kitten jump into the air at imaginary prey.
and I was happy/content/at peace. My livelong goal is to be at peace in my skin at any single moment. For me this is my highest calling in life. Being at peace means that I have learned to overcome my internal voice that says "you're not good enough". It means that I am not longer relying on other people to validate my feelings. It means that I'm not relying on anyone to provide for me emotional, physical, or financial support. It means that I have learned that I am in fact good enough and that I am all I need. Although I'm a long way from embracing this concept on a daily basis, I can rejoice in the fact that today, for a brief moment, I felt at peace.
