~~Be yourself. Life is precious as it is. All the elements for your happiness are already here. There is no need to run, strive, search, or struggle. Just be.~~ Thich Nhat Hanh
I wish I could tell you how utterly serene it feels like to "just be". How peaceful and calming it is. No struggles to control my world.....no searching for what will make me "better".....no striving for perfection. These days, I just am.
Maybe that's how I got through my quit so far. I didn't "struggle" with a craving. It appeared and I left it there until it went away. And it always went away. I didn't have to act on it, fight with it, or run from it.
Just be. How simple. How precious. How enlightening.
Today, keep it simple and just be. Enjoy. Relax. Be yourself. Love yourself. How simple it can be.
Just be. You can do it. And it can change your life as you let go of the struggles. As you stop running. As you simply live in this moment, here and now.
May you all feel the amazing serenity of this day. May you all feel the quiet joy of this moment. May you all finally understand how simply beautiful you are.
Sheri
