Weekly Challenge at Inspiration Avenue

If only the whole world could put Peace
above all else on their holiday wish list.
No matter what holiday is celebrated.

But I feel like the little angel, sad that it's
probably not to be, even for a day.

Still, we can hope,
and do the best we can to make it happen!

"We shall find peace. We shall hear angels, 
we shall see the sky sparkling with diamonds"
~Anton Chekov

And of course we can always remember this:
"In acceptance there is peace"

  4. So sweet, and check you out; getting an entry in so early! I love her expression and posture- she's definitely HOPING for peace even if she doesn't expect it. I also really like the palette you used, so soft and ethereal- beautiful!

  5. I love it! So heart felt. If only we try that is the real key. To find Peace often takes Courage. Courage doesn't always Roar, sometimes it is the voice at the end of the day that says, "I will try again tomorrow". I love the post and the angel.

  12. "In acceptance, there is peace" I think I shall set the intention to lean more deeply into this reality.
