From Within

December 17, 2015December 17, 2015 Laurie's Notes

I found beauty

in the listening,

in the sinking down

and holding —

in the willingness

to let go

and witness the unfolding

of this life from within.

Loved Into Being

December 16, 2015December 17, 2015 Laurie's Notes

I found peace

in the me that showed up

in each moment,

unconditionally —

to hold a space,

a prayer —

for whatever needed to be

loved into being.

The Sweetest Kind of Peace

December 3, 2015February 14, 2016 Laurie's Notes

And so I settled in

a little more deeply —

into my own being —

into this life.

And I found

the sweetest kind of peace

in being in the world

and in my heart

in a gentler way —

trusting in a bigger picture

I couldn’t quite see —

holding each tender moment

along my path,

the ones I treasured most,

the ones I would have missed

had life always gone

the way I had wished.
