Deep beneath the random and shifting waves of the mind, there is a vast ocean of peace. Like an ocean’s choppy surface, the outer mind may seem busy or even stormy. When we stop and let awareness turn within, we can find a still, quiet place.
Whatever appears to be going on at the surface of the mind, there is always the opportunity to turn within to experience peace. Take a moment each day to rest in that sweet place of tranquility. In the silence, find comfort.
~ Paraphrased from DailyWord
Love the analogy here. You are so right. I love sinking under bathwater and blocking out all the surface stuff. I feel like I can hear my own thoughts so much better. Of course, I have to come up for air but there is a moment of clarity there under the water.
