    Peace is a choice, I choose peace when I surrender and let go of my judgments and blame and love myself for being human. I am willing to see the perfection even if I do not know what it is. The mere fact that I ‘know’ that God/Life is tirelessly working in my behalf. In that moment of knowing, I shift my consciousness to peace…I am choosing peace. It’s not always easy to do, but when I do it…it is amazing.


  2. Beautifully put! My question for you and anyone else who chooses to comment, is this: What purpose does peace serve? And here’s a second question: Do periods of unrest or disquiet serve a purpose? Thanks for writing in Carol! ash

    I love your “peace ministry”. It has been a blessing and inspiration to me. I was just reading another of your articles and am so touched by the depth of your wisdom.


  4. Chris, Thank you for your kindness. It’s possible Peace sought me out, but I said yes, so we chose each other. Maybe Peace seeks each of us–there are many opportunities in each breath to choose peace. Much, much love and peace to you my friend. ♥
