So many years ago when I was a teenager, I had to find serenity after something traumatic. When it came over me, when I finally gave in and let go, it felt like a blanket of love drifting over me from above.
Earlier this year when I thought I was losing my mind, I remembered that previous time in my life, the serenity I found. I wanted it again so badly and knew what I had to do.
The difference between now and then is that I want serenity every day, not just during stressful times. I have to actively reach for it before I can accept it.
