― Thomas Moore

“On and on he wandered, and came out upon the sea-shore, on the barren rocks where the fierce light struck down, and the water moaned its low, perpetual wail of unrest. "Ah!" he said; "the sea will be more merciful; it, too, is wearied unto death and cannot sleep."

Then Arthur rose up from the deep, and cried aloud:

"This sea is mine!”

“Finding Peace- Poem Excerpt:

Peace is finding your bliss
Without any condition, situation, or person attached to it,
Peace is the tenacity to be you and feel your heart.
Peace is the sound you hear when you circle the scenery of your own soul.
Like a tree, so rooted to what is real
Like the ocean, exquisite and unending, whether people cherish it or not
Like a butterfly, unique and colourful, be it night or day.
Like the moon, full, even when not visibly so.”
― Christine Evangelou, Pieces: A Poetry Anthology

“[Charlie is dying:]
After what seemed a long while, but hadn’t been, Marsh gave Paulette’s hand a warm and caring squeeze. “They’re here for him,” she said.
But their heavenly visitors didn’t take him right away. They had to make room for the chaos of modern medical urgencies. To get out of the way of well-trained professionals who had dedicated their lives to holding back Heaven.
Choppers are just as noisy and turbulent as we imagine them to be. One tore in over the hills and shattered every bit of peace Charlie otherwise could have lost himself into.
In an instant the Med-Evac team was all over him. In the midst of that blatant orchestrated chaos Paulette fought to find her peace, and to hold him inside it.
“Hang on, buddy,” techs kept telling him. “Don’t go leaving us now. You just hang in there.”
But they didn’t understand, Paulette thought. It was his time.
The chopper made a horrible racket carrying him off. Marsh, Paulette, and Ailana held their peace as its winds whipped their world into a froth.
Harve’s face twisted with something that might conceivably have been rage.
Then, all of a sudden, the birds sang, as though someone had given them a cue.
“So that’s what it’s like,” Marsha said, very softly.
“The afterlife.
“My God, it’s so beautiful.”
― Edward Fahey, The Gardens of Ailana

“There are a world of answers, outside the loop.”

“Peace is the river in the desert, not on the other side of it.
Today I am still seeking that river. And not just a river far off somewhere that I must arrive at, but the river that runs wild and free in my inner life. The river that carves its way through my need for understanding and reminds me to slow down and breathe.”
― Morgan Harper Nichols, Peace Is a Practice: An Invitation to Breathe Deep and Find a New Rhythm for Life
