Finding Peace



September 11, 10:47am



Aujourd'hui, je voudrais ecrire quelques lines dans ce journal en ligne que je n'ai jamais utilise.



Ce matin, lorsque je me suis reveillee, j'ai pris rapidement une douche, je ne me souviens pas de la creme que j'ai utilisee: le beurre de cacao ou le beurre de Karite tellement je courrais en faisant ces petits gestes, j'ecoutais la radio. Deux emissions qui me plaisent bien, et voila qu'au dedans de moi je sens le desir de m'asseoir, je dois tout arreter et faire une pause, m'asseoir et me souvenir de la beaute du ciel, de ce soleil magnifique qui avait ses rayons qui dansaient dans le salon de ma petite maison dans la prairie. Ma petite Merane etait encore couchee et je ne voulais pas la reveiller.
J'ai pris le temps d'ecouter mon coeur, de comprendre pourquoi est ce que je me sentais si tendue et de decider que je voulais changer cela et embrasser la paix. Jouir de ce moment de silence etait vraiment un cadeau du ciel.
Je me suis laissee aller, a savourer chaque minute, lorsque j'ai realise que voici bientot trente minutes que j'avais pris pour ecouter mon coeur.
Maintenant je peux sortir de ma maison et aller au travail en paix...puisses tu resentir cette paix aujourd'hui.





I decided to start my story in French instead of English, which is my 5th language learned in school and here in the states by listening to other people talk. Sometimes I'm telling myself, you need to go to school in order to really master this language, for now I'm still procrastinating.
For the readers that can use their French and read this journal entry that will be great.



Here another version in English...



This morning, when I woke up, I rushed in the bathroom, took my shower, used my body cream, I can even remember which one I used, shea better or cocoa better, I was listening to my favorite radio program but suddenly I realized that I did not want to feel rush, I paused and decided to take back the image of the beautiful sky I saw from my bathroom window and sat on my cough, listen to the birds, listen to my heart. My heart was telling me that I was not at peace, I was angry at certain things that were not in my control, I decided to stop being mad and have peace in my heart. I remember the beautiful sun coming through my window, the trees, and the meadows, my little house in the prairie, I'm very lucky, I should stay blessed to live on a 25 acres. I spent the time listening to my heart and enjoying the quietness of the morning, rejoicing instead of worrying.
I realized that I have spent 30 minutes just listening to my heart and feeling peace overflow it.
I then decided that I'm replenished now, I can get my daughter ready for school and I can go to work today, with my heart fill of peace and for me to notice the road, my nice car, the trees, the squirrel running with a nut and the blue sky in this beautiful state of Oregon. I'm blessed!
