What does serenity mean to you?

This was beautiful, Amy, and something that we need to keep in mind often.  With a mother who is almost 91 and a developmentally delayed daughter and a thriving business, there is little 'peaceful' time for me.  Great reminder.  I used to walk to the water every day to 'recharge my batteries.' Not so much water around here :))

For me, the peace that passes understanding is in a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Even when the world is crumbling around me, there is joy. No the kind of joy that most would think of. The joy of knowing that the very worst day of my life on this earth is the closest thing to Hell that I will ever know. ♥

Amy, Great post. I try to pay attention to nature to find serenity.  Today I was putting up siding but stopped to watch an ermine playing in the snow.  He looked so cute as he raced around -- all white except for the black tip of his tail.

Personally it's the calmness, comfort in knowing and having a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. 

Serenity doesn't happen enough for us on our daily lives.  Stress is more the rule on a daily basis.  Thanks for reminding me to seek serenity.  I am hoping this weekend in the Poconos will bring that back to me, and recharge my batteries.  Have a Happy Thanksgiving Amy!

Amy:

What a thoughtful blog.  I need more serenity in my life. I just stopped by to wish you and your family a very Happy Thanksgiving.  Hope its a serene day.

Serenity definitely doesn't happen as often as I would like!  :-)
