When Your Heart Is At Peace

I will be brief.  As far as I am concerned, my words will reflect common sense and logic.  If you fill an empty glass with water, you will have a full glass of water.  What will you do with that glass of pure water?  Drink it?  Share it?  Water your plant(s) with it?  That glass of water can be of much benefit.  It can be of much benefit because you have access to it.  That is of key importance: access.  Let me now get symbolic.  What if you have peace in your heart?  What if your heart is not troubled? What if your heart is not angry?
What if your heart is not jealous or bitter?  What if your heart has a spirit of kindness in it?  Pour it out.  Let others benefit from it.  Will you lose it if you pour it out?  No.  Unlike the water in the glass; when you use it you don't lose it.  You get a refill.  And then you get another and another and another, and so on.  So.......how does one gain access to peace?  You follow it.  You find it.  You pour it out.  And then you do it again and again and again.  Be thirsty for it.  Drink up.  Pour it out.   Be thirsty again.  Drink up.  Pour it out. Being thirsty for it, drinking it, pouring it out; and following it.  What a beautiful trip it is!
