To be at peace
is to consider the whole world,
and feel that you're exactly where you need to be.

To stop searching for somebody,
and instead start waiting for them

To acknowledge the sadness in your heart,
and accept it as a part of you

To hear a crazy woman talk,
and listen carefully to her words

To look at a man who robbed you
and feel only love.

To see a wandering pigeon,
and toss it a piece of bread

To listen to a friend in distress,
and not say a single word

To look into the sky,
and feel confident that there's something out there

To look down at your feet,
and feel like you're a part of something

To look at your hands,
and know that you are doing something

and to know you have somebody in your life
you need to live for,
but only wanting to live for yourself.
