thirty one days ago we thought this was about us and our words. hehehe... thirty one days later we know this was about you and your words. when we see you in harris teeter, when we see you at soccer, when we see you while walking george, when we get emails from you...YOUR words move our souls and bring us peace. YOU are the peacemakers. thank you for telling us your stories. thank you for making us feel like we are not alone in this. thank you for your encouragement, support, and love. we love you too. ridiculously.

01 | none of this matters if things are not right with your people.
02 | the joneses are not actually happy.
03 | the people and the stories make a house a home.
04 | the most stressed out and least peaceful people are the ones who watch the news.
05 | go first. don't wait for the other person to change. it doesn't work that way.
06 | make do with what you have, you don't need more stuff.
07 | when we put each other first, there is peace.
08 | focus on the solution, not the problem. this is the path to peace.
09 | love for the one who does not love you is God's love and it conquers the world.
10 | peace comes when we realize that we choose our thoughts and we decide to change them.
11 | whatever you think people are withholding from you, give it to them.
12 | peace is not so much the absence of struggle, but the presence of love.
13 | if your goal is to win the argument, then you've lost the relationship.
14 | the darkness upon you is flooded in light.
15 | make your home tell your story.
16 | bright light and wide open views feel simple, clean, and peaceful.
17 | have something meaningful, beautiful, or natural everywhere you look.
18 | never underestimate your ability to change everything.
19 | find the funny in every day.
20 | even in hell on earth, he made me laugh. this is why we are still together.
21 | if you want your children to be peaceful, be peaceful.
22 | art is anything that moves your soul.
23 | moments that matter don't just happen. we have to fight the status quo to make them happen.
24 | there is nothing peaceful about lost keys and lost shoes and lost lawn mowers.
25 | believing in others before they believe in themselves is a peace on earth sort of thing.
26 | be at peace with good enough.
27 | have only what you know to be useful or believe to be beautiful.
28 | peace is a choice we are free to make even when everything sucks.
29 | it's wicked hard, but believe you can change things.
30 | there can never really be any peace and joy for me until there is peace and joy finally for you too.
31 | some days we choose to be love. some days we choose to be hate. every single day, we choose...


this is the last day of a 31 day series about living in a peaceful home.
