Damien at the Speed of Life

When the arrows of life’s hardships are flying past you and you can hardly gather your thoughts, invite order and stillness into your life. I know it’s hard but you should take some time to walk the beach or even just pull into a parking lot and creak the seat back. Breathe slowly and visualize a peaceful image. Doing this for even 10 minutes will bring order and stillness to your mind. You can also engage in introspection and questioning such as: “Why do I feel this way?” Take the time to explore the possible causes. People will take notice you are different. When they do, let them know your secret weapon. Taking time to invite order and stillness into your life will add quality to the years you have ahead. Here’s a few quotes about order and stillness that I absolutely love:

“Sometimes we reach the boiling point before we realize that the stove is on. Become aware of your feelings – keep your eye on the stove.”
Karen Dougherty

“It doesn’t matter how inspired your work is if you’re not healthy.”

Care deeply..give freely…think kindly…act gently and be at peace with the world.
anonymous

“Joy is not in things; it is in us.”
Benjamin Franklin

“May you have warmth in your igloo, oil in your lamp, and peace in your heart!”
Eskimo proverb
