“Peace begins with a smile.”
Mother Teresa
I’m smiling here, Spidey, and hoping it brings inner as well as outer peace, over here!
You see, I need that peace, and quiet, so I can get busy, today, with a day that I have managed to clear, so I can devote it to as much writing-based work, as possible. Whether it is words that get written, or better planning, for the future words, I need that peace!
There will be some time in the morning when the rest of the household doesn’t bother to rise until midday. Then at least 3 hours when Lil Man and Hubby Dearest go to cricket training. Lil Princess will happily keep out of my way, so I can continue to be busy myself.
Hopefully, a productive day will give me the route to the rest of the story I am writing.
Wish me luck!
So, how do you ensure peace around you, when you are trying to be productive?
Wishing you a wonderfully peaceful Sunday, Peeps!

I completely second your words, sis. That is what I have been working towards and I am close to finally creating that peace around me again to let the writing happen as it used to. Because inspiration doesn’t come when you have a window of 30 minutes to fill. I lost a lot of that inner peace due to the crazy business of the past 4 years. I am closer than ever to ending this. I see your post as a confirmation and deep encouragement, sis. It already makes me feel that former fire again. Thank you so much, love ya 💖
