SERENITY ON A SATURDAY

In my last post I talked about how I am using walking as one way to find serenity in my life. You can read that here. I am also working on other ways to find serenity.

We are living in a chaotic time, and finding a place of serenity in the chaos can be difficult. 

I do not write about politics on this blog, but I will say that there will never be a place in my life for any kind of bigotry and I do not have any tolerance for prejudice. 

Also, my focus of interest, as a counselor and beyond, is women's issues. I feel like I have let my blog slip away from that focus and I want to bring it back.

Women's lives are very complex. We wear many hats and we have many different parts of our lives, but I believe all of our lives are intertwined and that it is important for us to be supportive of each other. 

Lately, I have been wondering how we manage to keep doing that when there is so much divisiveness in our society. 

How, as women, do we help to bring about a sense of serenity for ourselves and for those around us?

How do we put aside our differences and find the center of who we are as women?

I realize that we will never agree on all of the issues we face in our country, but I do believe that we all want peace for our families. I believe that women will be the peace makers. 

With all of that in mind, I am going to spend time digging into my own core beliefs and sharing some of my thoughts here. 

I would love to hear your thoughts, but I do ask that we are all respectful. That we don't make this about politics, but about what we want for ourselves as women. 

Sending you all love.
