Piece of my-peace of mind
Exiting the prison gates for the final time, an euphoric gape of serenity shielded my spirit. There no longer would be long nights — powered by frustration without comprehension, irrational decisions-driven by reaper-like situations; the new has arrived. The imprisoned mind should never be taken lightheartedly. The mind can easily become an inescapable gate that suppresses calm thoughts and brings in depressive spirits — slamming the flame gates upon entrance.
I spent much of 2011–2015 drawing up plans on how to conquer my own mind. My blueprints proved to be a flaw-filled plan and work needed to be done. By 2015 I felt I’d reached a pinnacle of fighting through fire hoops and the avoidance of nouns that irritated the peace within. Similar to Michael Scofield, there were kinks to work out, but my break would come, in due time.
While having a conversation with a flower child of spirits, we spoke about stress and fear. We questioned one another about what do we do to help us through these bristling times. Speed dial. Yes. Keep a list of things that can help you regain control of your peace. I’m deleting contacts and replacing them with peace-infused regulations. I was never one to keep much company in my presence, but the company I do keep cannot interfere with the task at hand.
How do you obtain your peace? What are some things or people that disturb your serenity?
Dec. 31 — 7:27 PM — peace of mind is still sought after, but I have it more than ever. Would you like a piece of my-peace of mind? I have plenty. The peace is not scarce. As I prep myself to go into a new year, I can’t help but think what will bring me an abduance of peace. I can start with selflessness — bringing peace to others who feel they are filled with disturbance.
Five years of working towards this. I prayed for this and worked at obtaining it for oh-so long of time. Yet, I haven’t reached final form.
So even if you overcame doubt and ya livin’ ain’t bad, know there’s some barbwire that’s always in your path. — Kendrick Lamar
