A Different Kind Of Peace

I feel so at peace now. I don’t know exactly at what point I was able to feel this way, but I’m so at peace with the state of my emotions now, it’s great.

Like I’ve said, I’ve realized a lot of things these past month. But lately, this peace that I’ve been experiencing, it’s a different kind of peace and I’m telling you, it’s wonderful. I realized that I’ve been creating my own kind of peace, for so long. In the past, I felt peaceful every time things go my way, like when things are going well at work, with my family, with my friends and loved one… but now I realize that even though I can create some kind of peace by my own, it’s of a poor kind. It’s shallow and fleeting.

But this peace that I’m experiencing right now, it doesn’t come from me or from anyone else. It comes from God. I know this because it’s such a different kind of peace, one that’s pure and encompassing. I can’t really describe it, it’s a kind of inner light that sustains me throughout the day. Don’t get me wrong, I still feel sad sometimes, and scared too. But somewhere deep inside, a certain kind of peace steadies me, calms me, and keeps me going.

Now I recognize the difference. And I’ll have God’s peace any day. :)

Rent Your Way To A Memorable Vacation

angel on Jun-25-2008

Ever since I’ve read about vacation rental homes, I have been intrigued by the thought. I told myself I have to try it out someday. If I were to choose my own vacation home, it would definitely be by the beach. Imagine being in a fine beach home complete with furnishings and amenities designed for a luxurious stay. Oceanfront… seaside… setting sun… waves splashing… what more could you ask for?

So I went online and I came across this website that provides home properties for rent. Outer Banks rentals in North Carolina sounds too good to be true. They offer gorgeous vacation rentals located in such amazing locations, and they have the best customer service too! They have images and floor plans of their properties on their website and the features of each home are listed as well. Their beach homes are very much ideal for a fun and relaxing time off, and guaranteed to give you a vacation you’ll never forget.

So what are you waiting for? Rent your way to a memorable vacation and try one of their outstanding homes. I’m sure your experience will be wonderful. I can’t wait to rent one of my own. Someday.

When You Walked Away

I thought you said it would be you and me forever… I thought you said you’d never leave… You said you’d never stop loving me, and I believed you. But then one day, you walked away… I don’t know what went wrong… I wanted to stop you, but I wasn’t sure I could… or if I even should…

There have been times in the past when you walked away from me but you always came back… But now it’s different… I have this hollow feeling in the pit of my stomach, that this time, you’ll be gone for good… And it hurts… To watch the man I love leaving… To watch my baby walk away from me… But I know you had to…

When you walked away… I felt no bitterness or regret as I slowly watched your back disappear from view… What I felt was bittersweet longing of a love that once was, but never will be again… And now you’re gone to a place where I couldn’t be with you… Where all our memories will, from now on, only be from a distant past… You don’t need me anymore… So I’m letting you go, and I’ll send all my love with you…

“When these days are gone, when the love you once feel for me slowly fades away, when your smile and laugh is only here as a dream, and when the words ‘I love you’ are scripts of the past, I’ll always have the memories that were once moments, and I’ll always know that no matter what, I got the chance to love you the best way I can.”
