Advice from the Night

"Looking for peace is like looking for a turtle with a mustache: You won’t be able to find it. But when your heart is ready, peace will come looking for you."

Ajahn Chah (via kari-shma)



Of course, I would go to the bars only to meet this really nice married couple. They have been together for 20 years. Isn't that amazing? I was like, teach me your ways! Haha. He simply put it, "Don't look for it. It will come find you." He was telling me how he was engaged and was ready to settle down but it wasn't the right woman. So he decided to enjoy being single and he went out and he met her and the rest is history with 4 kids later. He told me that the secret to a happy life is to stop wanting. Sounds like a good plan.
