Ha! I knew that would get your attention because who is bold enough to say that?

Are you courageous enough to keep reading?

Most of my life I was in a desperate search for sustained peace. The second I didn't feel peaceful I thought something was terribly wrong.

I didn't understand that when I felt chaotic or turbulent, I was being given a gift. Let me explain.

The definition of peace is freedom from disturbance.

Deep in my genetics and conditioning as a woman, there is a narrative that tells me feeling anything other than peace, joy and happiness "I am doing something wrong". That means I need to eradicate all other feelings, emotions and states of being.

I didn't think it was okay to be hungry, mad, sad, horny, silly, jealous and so many other perceived godforsaken things.

I thought if I can just feel peace all the time I will be the way I'm supposed to be.

Might I add...if we felt continual peace, we may get a little bored.  

As humans we must have variety for well-being.

Many of you that are looking for a continual peace, avoid taking risks or even sometimes leaving the house in fear that you may encounter something that will rob you of peace.

And, you certainly will. As we live in a chaotic world full of energy that is waiting to be molded and directed.

I did not understand that I am an alchemist, just like you are.

Alchemist: A person who transforms or creates something by way of directing energy.

When you experience anything other than peace, joy, fun and happiness, you are being given information so that you can redirect energy and create a more aligned life experience in accordance with what you desire.

If you spend your time, trying to avoid anything other than peace you are missing a profound opportunity to create a life you love.

In order for you to make empowered decisions for yourself, you must take note of how you feel, and what you are experiencing so you can make choices that will redirect the energy that is not aligned with your passions.

Without accepting where are, you will not be able to decide where you want to go.

Peace is a wonderful feeling on occasion, because it gives you information that you are aligned with your true desires. All other emotions keep you moving in your creative process of expansion.

Here is to feeling turbulent, for it is the doorway to your dreams.

Everything you want is outside of your comfort zone. So let's get uncomfortable.
