Women especially have lost that wild nature. They complain long and hard about men being so free with their bodily functions, and fact that they are acting like “little boys” all time. Well, ladies, I strongly suggest that you give it a try! Women need to let go of all civilization once in awhile. We have had all wildness bred out of us, and it is unhealthy! Many women feel a yearning as they grow older to dig in earth (gardening), act a little silly or wild from time to time, and yet they are so frightened… what will neighbors (mates, parents, friends, strangers) think?

Ha! Who cares? I would rather be known as that sort of strange lady who lives down block than I would be frustrated and pent-up. No chemical hair dye and plastic surgery for me.

An excellent book about this is “Women Who Run With The Wolves” by Clarissa Pinkola Estes. I have a sort of goal to get every woman on earth to read this book! Cast off your pantyhose and dance… let loose wildness and howl at moon! You have nothing to lose but your ulcers, your unhappiness, your fear and your yearning.

You will gain your personal power, your joy, your connection and your intuitive self.

I hope to bump into you some night, running under full moon… in wild.

When you are on path to inner peace, you can begin to see “Big Picture”. You begin to see that there really is an order in universe, a meaning to things that happen in your life for good or for bad, and that even so-called bad things can have a positive outcome ultimately. You begin to be able to look back, non-emotionally, and see opportunities that were disguised as troubles in your life.

A major road sign on inner peace path is when you can let go of past. You are no longer driving your car in reverse. Recognizing that past is over and done with, and that it is unchangeable is a huge sign. All energy spent on regret is wasted. Instead of wishing that you could change past, you learn to change today! You can clearly see that today is all you have, and that you need to make it best that it can be.

When you are on path, you know that only inner beauty matters. You can let go of society’s expectations and begin to just be yourself. You are working on who you are, not what you look like, and you accept this in others as well. It is only with heart that one can clearly see; those are only eyes that matter.

Another guidepost is seeing blessings in everything. When you are on path to inner peace, you are able to wake up each morning feeling happy, excited and hopeful for day that you have been given, and every night you can count blessings that you received and say thank you for them. After all, most blessings and miracles are just little things and easy to miss when you are not on path, but each little thing becomes huge when you learn to see them with your soul.

And last road sign to inner peace that I am going to mention is one that tells you that you are a unique, beautiful, worthy, deserving individual. You know that you deserve best that life has to offer, and you won’t settle for any less.

Inner Peace is only destination that really matters in life. It is place where we were all meant to dwell in. Inner Peace is where Divine meets human, and journey is well marked if you know how to recognize signs.
