My peace

When my world is filled with the clouds of doubt
And inadequacy; when I'm feeling
Like I can't face one more problem without
Crashing like an airplane out of control;
When I've reached the lowest and most desperate
Moments; I know that somewhere you are there,
Thinking of me, and believing in me,
Willing me to make it through the darkness.
You help me smile in the midst of the storm.
You are my peace. You are my happy place.

    Hmm I started reading and said yes we all feel like that sometime, but thats quite an achievement..to have someone who is one's happy peace. So yes we are all looking for that too :)

    Cherish that happy place. Most people spend their entire life trying to search for one, though I suspect you are not talking about an actual location. smiles

    Thanks for all your comments. I think writers in general need to have a happy place - something/someone that inspires us and lifts us up when all else fails.
