“When you make peace with yourself, you make peace with the world.” —Maha Ghosananda Working on my poem about peace unleashed a flood of memories. I realized there would be no poem until I wrote the following down. Thank you for reading along. The last thing my mother said to me three days before she died was, “I hope you find peace.” She knew, you see, that the child she’d raised was bit out of the ordinary and had difficulty making her way in the world.
Peace in Pieces
