This being human can be quite the challenge sometimes.  It's easy to get caught up in the swirling chaos and forget who and what we truly are.  

Saints, sages and all the great teachers will remind you that indeed Peace is your natural state.  It is closer than your own breath.  In fact, Peace is the very essence of all that you are.

So, how then did we stray so far from this essence of being?

Why can we feel so much pain, sadness, desperation, confusion, anxiety and loss?

We've simply lost our way for a short bit, but the way back home is more simple than you might realize.

As the illustrious Ram Das said, "We are all just walking each other home."
