It's not been easy

:grouphug: peace. deep peace.

 

Deep peace of the running wave to you,

 

 

Of water flowing, rising and falling,

 

 

Sometimes advancing, sometimes receding.

 

 

May the stream of your life flow unimpeded!

 

 

Deep peace of the running wave to you!

 

 

 

 

Deep peace of the flowing air to you,

 

 

Which fans your face on a sultry day,

 

 

The air which you breathe deeply, rhythmically,

 

 

Which imparts to you energy, consciousness, life.

 

 

Deep peace of the flowing air to you!

 

 

 

 

Deep peace of the quiet earth to you,

 

 

Who, herself unmoving, harbors the movements

 

 

And facilitates the life of the ten thousand creatures.

 

 

While resting contented, stable, tranquil.

 

 

Deep peace of the quiet earth to you!

 

 

 

 

Deep peace of the shining stars to you,

 

 

Which stay invisible till darkness falls

 

 

And discloses their pure and shining presence

 

 

Beaming down in compassion on our turning world.

 

 

Deep peace of the shining stars to you!

One of my favorite old hymns that brings me comfort when I need it:

 

Peace, Peace, Wonderful Peace,

Coming down from the Father above.

Sweep over my spirit forever I pray,

In fathomless billows of love.

 

Hoping you were able to rest last night. :grouphug:

 

Faith

Thank you. I did finally go to sleep about 1:30. It is telling on me now, but my list of chores is almost complete.
