I used to believe that peace had to be earned.
That I had to do everything first… and only then rest. Until one day, I simply stopped.
I sat quietly. I listened to my breath. I felt my body begin to soften.
And then I understood: You don’t have to earn peace. You don’t have to justify rest. You just have to allow it.
Because in the silence, you find what you’ve been searching for all along— peace.
