i agree... that's it exactly...

i especially loved being in the presence of my grand mother... she had such a peaceful aura about her... i couldn't help but feel a calming affect whenever i was near her... and i have also met others whose presence did the same for me...that emitted that same peaceful feeling...

what if all we need to enjoy a wonderful day in the neighborhood is to understand...
is to keep everything really simple...
maybe just redefine what we know...
life is love...
love is life...
love and life are spiritual...
love and life are to be found in all the positives...
love and life can only exist... be experienced in the moment of "NOW"...

ego on the other hand is fear...
fear is ego...
ego thrives on all negatives...
negative emotions are all the spawn of egos' creation... fear...
the opposite of love... would be ego...
the opposite of life... would be ego...
ego cannot exist in the moment... "NOW"...

so... if we have these two entities within us...
one of 'spirit'...love/truth/compassion...
one of 'ego'... fear/lies/insecurities...
which one should we share with others...???

to really know peace of mind should be just a simple matter of letting our mind be free... and pay particular attention to our thoughts... watch the thoughts much like a cat watching the mouse hole... don't resist... just let them come and go as they please... but... know that you do not have to dwell on the negatives... just let them float by... and to me this is freedom... this is peace of mind...

after all... if i let what others say and do affect me in a negative way am i not giving them power over me...???
am i not allowing them to steal my peace...???
do i not have the power to choose peace over chaos...???

examine all things...
hold fast to that which is good...
for the truth is...
it's a wonderful day in the neighborhood...
lol...
