Somewhere in the past year I read that having peace does not mean without "struggle." I must admit it was an "aha" moment for me. I think, unconsciously, I had this vision of "peace" that was this idyllic way of living without tension and conflict.
I think one aspect of "peace" is choosing your struggles.
Today I decided to "struggle" with my physical self. It was a very hot and humid morning...the kind of morning that would be easy to say, "It is too hot and humid to run today." So instead, I chose to struggle and pushed myself to run a mile without stopping, which for me, is something that I have not accomplished for one year.
In a way, it gave me some peace today.
