Write A Poem About Where And When You Feel Most At Peace 1 years ago Peace Within
Tiffany Narvise WilliamsAfter many years of people pleasing for acceptance and validation, peace and ease is my daily meditation.
Peace is choosing to honor what I need before I give, remembering I must nourish me first to truly live.
Peace is identifying what is actually true in my web of negative thoughts, it’s clinging to the miracles for which my ancestors fought.
Peace finds me when I shed every ounce of shame, because it finds no purpose in highlighting who’s to blame.
Peace is trekking through the unknown with fear in your heart, it’s giving me grace and strength not to fall apart.
Peace greets me when I’m lacking confidence, whispering I am the epitome of love and abundance.
Peace healed the emptiness I desperately wanted to escape, it gave me the wisdom, vision, and direction to create.
Peace tore through the labels society convinced me to wear, clothing me in freedom and clarity to become more aware.
Peace is the awareness extending a love invitation to my inner child, all she ever really wants is to be seen and heard as she navigates in the wild.
Peace is finding connection in the midst of rejection and finally understanding those conflicts were for my protection.
Peace is realizing that those challenging moments I experienced in obscurity really opened me up to overcoming deep insecurity.
Peace is embracing the depth of my sovereignty, knowing I’m an instrument for infinite novelty.
Peace is watching the sunset pause for me to absorb its energy as the majestic unveils a higher frequency.
Peace is knowing I’m loved and supported, no longer entertaining thoughts my critic would have successfully thwarted.
Peace feels like silence in nature, like a cool breeze after a storm, I observe how the trees refuse to conform.
Peace is the stillness that invites me to nurture my entire being, as I discover access to this level of consciousness is also freeing.
Kisses on my forehead after a long trying day, carefully crafted words of affirmation my loved one might say.
A gentle sense of surrender for the calamity in my mind, I have access to the unlimited tranquility of the divine
Watching the intrusive thoughts dissolve as I continue to evolve, knowing the shadow work I’m doing is destined for resolve.
Wounds losing their sensitivity, I’m released from the battlefield of captivity, it’s my time and I am ready to welcome serenity.

Hi Emily! Thank you for your wonderful words of encouragement. I struggled for so long trying to find my own peace not realizing I was the architect. I am so grateful for the ability to articulate and express myself from a place of safety. May all the peace you envision immerse your being with ease, joy and enlightenment.

Tiffany, There is so much wisdom is this piece. This line hit me hard, “Peace is choosing to honor what I need before I give, remembering I must nourish me first to truly live.'” It is so true. We all need to honor our own peace and needs before we give or do for others. Thank you for sharing and for being part of The Unsealed community. <3 Lauren
