Peace Within

From the Forward ~by Thomas Shepherd

Peace Within introduces new voices to the world of spiritual literature All the stories, poems and spiritual journeys you will encounter in this volume have a common denominator; each contributor was willing to risk whatever it took to find balance and harmony in their lives, expressed in the simple phrase Peace Within. Although life may not always be joyful, people who find that axis of spiritual integrity within, and stay centered upon it, soon discover that nothing which happens in life can disturb their peace.

Now, more than ever, humanity needs to grow up, to enter a new phase of life. Our new millennium requires a renewed consciousness of the potentiality within every sentient being. The search for new consciousness has found some guiding voices in the book you hold in your hands.

Each story has an unmistakable sense of peace, love and joy in some mixture and balance. Each person found their own way to this treasure in their own timing. Their stories are not only inspiring and informative; they are critical to our future. M
