Whimsy 365: Day 16

I love how this sketch came out! She looks so peaceful. Her serene expression was the inspiration for the saying.

When I say my prayers, I always pray for my family to have peace in their hearts, minds and homes. I’m blessed to have a peaceful home. I believe peace comes from within, therefore, if we have peace within us, we will infuse our homes with that peace.

Unfortunately, there are too many homes in the world with turmoil, anger and drama. I am the anti-drama queen. I seriously don’t like drama in my life and especially in my home. I remember when Kyle was in middle school he had dreams of becoming a rock star and living life on the road. He said to me one day, “Mom, I don’t mean to be rude, but you and Dad’s life is so boring.” I still giggle when I think back on that statement. I responded, “Well, honey, we like our lives just the way it is. To you it may seem boring, but we are happy with the life we’ve built together.” Even more funny is now that Kyle is a young man of 22 he has settled into wanting a quiet peaceful life as well! He wants a home with land where he can have animals and work on cars. Funny how things change.

Wishing you a peaceful life and home,

Teresa
