Comforting Myself

Pebbles of Peace –

Comforting Myself

I begin to comfort myself by listening within.

That is where I find a moment of peace.

I may have to wait for it to come, as I sit quietly.

I am so desirous of finding peace, that I finally ignore all the noise.

I keep listening.

I feel a sense of quiet and peace begin to take over my mind and body.

I am so relieved.

I can breathe.

I take a deep, calming breath.

There is room for peace for me in that breath.

In the moment of peace is a moment of clarity.

I know what I need to do. I can take my first tiny step.

This comforts me.

Step-by-step, I can accomplish what I need to do and what I desire to do.

Both are important.

It is important for my voice to be heard.

I am here to discover what I love to do and to share my gifts.

By being heard, I am able to comfort others.

But first, I start with myself.

I am worthy of comfort.

I am worthy of safety.

I am worthy of dignity, and respect and consideration.

I exist as mind, soul and body.

Together, as one, we identify as myself.

I am comforted by my completeness.
