What does your serenity mean to you
For me, (its a tough concept) its peace even on the horrible days. Finding joy on the sorrowful days. Knowing even when its cloudy the sun is still shinning
Like @Thirdmonkey, for me, it’s finding peace and acceptance of what is and what will be. In that case, I’m a student of serenity, always practicing, always learning.
Hope this isn’t too obnoxious. As a scuba diver, this is how serenity feels to me when I’m underwater…
Serenity means not allowing others shitty attitude, words or behavior to move me from my center. It’s remaining in the center regardless of the chaos around me. Sometimes easier said then done. It’s a daily practice.
Welcome to the community, serenity for me is pretty much the same as other people have said, being able to deal with whatever comes my way with a sense of peace and acceptance🥰
An absence of inner noise. Hearing something, reacting to it in the moment and moving on. Not holding junk for other people. Welcome!
100% this. When I look inside my mind all I find is a nothingness of endless joy, a few years ago it had some crazy man living in it screaming at me all day about how shit it all is.
And I believed him.
Peace of mind
I tell you, the book 24 Hours a Day is a cornerstone of my sobriety, precisely because it answers these questions for me!
Serenity is Acceptance. I accept my past, my sickness, I don’t have this hanging over my head anymore. I don’t have to live in fear of my past or my character defects.
It’s peaceful here. Serenity is me finally being comfortable in my own skin. Getting out of myself.
I remember that guy. You’ve come such a long way and grown so much friend.
It’s like the feeling that I get when I look at my surroundings outside. I feel bound to it as I am bound to this earth with a feeling of being calm/still, wholeness, purpose, at peace/tranquil and completion even in chaos. Everything else in existence is on mute or doesn’t exist. When I can’t find it, I create it. OR this song (except for when the guy chimes in) lol
It means my insides match my outsides and both are free from fear, worry, anger, resentment and chaos.
Well played.
I’ll have to check this out.
Thanks Bootz.
It was good. Can’t wait to listen to him again. I need to listen to things twice. My mind tends to wander
Thanks a lot for another app
