The only thing that changes is life and that triggers all the other many changes. Have you heard of dynamic systems? Even the way they change is in constant change. Things cannot be predicted (I don't believe that :-) but then some things can, after travail (birth is a good example :-).
Our journey is at times magical, painful or happy, but in all cases it is full of wonders. If and when we find them, we also find meaning. Sometimes we also find peace.
My daughter (who is n apprentice of cult leader) told me once that peace is dangerous because it never lasts too long. I replied to her that there is another peace, we all learned: "Thou shalt keep him in perfect peace whose mind stayed on Thee, for he trusted in Thee."
Changing that to a non-gender specific idea, I added to her that all we need to do is continue looking for that one or One, we can rest our mind on, that we can trust...
Peace be with all of us (though I still want Grace above all :-).
