Peace Is . . .

I saw a bumper sticker today that said "peace is" and it has left me thinking. Peace is so many things and it's different for all of us. Today I found peace in reminding myself that I live in one of the most beautiful cities in the world and that there is beauty all around me. This pic is the courtyard outside my house. It's a great place to read, talk with loved ones and enjoy that morning cup of coffee.

What brings you peace?

I made this little coil vessel. There is something peaceful about working with clay. The smell of the clay, the feel of it in my hands . . . I just love it! Other things that bring me peace are the first cup of coffee in the morning, hiking with my partner, talking with my kids, reading a great book, watching the birds in my yard, eating chocolate, sharing my time with those less fortunate than I, listening to or making music, just to name a few. :) Think about what brings you peace . . .
