"Another day just like all the rest" her mind said to her. But even as she thought it, her heart never wanting to let go, whispered gently in her ear, "you never know".
Torn between the two, she wished she could silence them both. She wished she could feel nothing, think nothing. She wished for peace, peace of mind and of heart. But her never-stopping mind asked, "isn't peace of mind a thought?" Quickly her ever-beating heart added, "and peace of heart a feeling?"
Her thoughts, never wanting to loosen their grip on her being explained, "so long as you are searching for peace you will think it, and the more you think the more ideas and thoughts will come into your being, and the farther you drift away from peace. You are in a perpetual cycle, a cycle that just might stop when you 'rest in peace'!"
Taking pity on her Soul, and sensing her spirit sinking, her heart replied, "wanting to feel peace is not wanting to feel nothing, feeling nothing is emptiness; but rather wanting to feel peace is finding harmony between thought and feeling and that does not come from the emptiness of when you 'rest in peace'. Total peace comes from the harmony of searching with your mind and soothing with your heart"
