Choosing Serenity

We are bombarded incessantly by the world around us: e-mails, texts, phone calls, Social Media, etc. all clamoring for our attention as never before. And our peace of mind, our serenity suffers as a result. Quiet time has always been important, but in today’s world it is imperative. So, set aside some time during the week to be disconnected from the world. Turn off the phone, shut down the computer, no TV’s or any other sound producing device left on. Turn around or cover any clock that may catch your eye. Now read a book, a real one, write (with pen and paper), take a walk in the park or a hike in nature or just sit quietly experiencing the peace of the moment. Depending on your circumstances: small children, roommates, uncooperative spouses etc. you may only be able to do this for a short period but make the effort.

This exercise in active electronic inactivity, disconnected from the electronic world, is a demonstration in willingness to walk the road less traveled, a simple affirmation in action which opens us to serenity, this simple discipline affirming our true connection to the Miraculous.
