My only home is peace
From there all else arises —
Rage, ignorance, and lust, as well as
Clarity, creativity, and compassion.

The path to peace is rest —
When activity ceases,
As it always does,
The peace that was always there is apparent.

Even the most frantic of activity
Lives within its loving embrace
And, even if I lose faith in it,
I remember it is always there waiting.

May I always find my way back home.
