#solace

So people have been hurting and I understand that. And it doesn't give them comfort or solace for me to tell them, you know, but for me, we would be in a worldwide depression. ↗

In truth I suspect that merely slowing down is not a very satisfying answer. What I need has less to do with my pace of life than my peace of life. At any speed, I crave a deep and lasting inner peace. And if it's solace I'm after, I don't need to pace myself like a turtle, change jobs or set up house on a quiet island. It is usually frenetic living, not high energy, that robs my peace of mind. ↗

As long as you're alive... ...you can't put life on hold like you can with a game-so that's why... ...those brief respites... ...when you can forget all the bitterness and pain... they let you take a breath... ...and calm your heart. If you don't give yourself that kind of time... ...living on just becomes, every so often-it gets to be too painful. ↗

If solace is any sort of succor to someone, that is sufficient. I believe in the faith of people, whatever faith they may have. ↗

It's hard to say what drives a three year-old, but I think I had a sense that nature was my solace, and nature was a place in which there was beauty, in which there was order. ↗
