Peace Of Mind

What's it worth to you? "Peace of mind" usually means the absence of mental stress or anxiety. There's even a song titled "Peace Of Mind" by Boston.

Now if you're feeling kinda low about the dues you've been paying
Future’s coming much too slow
And you wanna run but somehow you just keep on staying
Can't decide on which way to go

I understand about indecision
But I don't care if I get behind
People living in competition
All I want is to have my peace of mind.

Now you're climbing to the top of the company ladder
Hope it doesn't take too long
Can't you see there'll come a day when it won't matter
Come a day when you'll be gone

I understand about indecision
But I don't care if I get behind
People living in competition
All I want is to have my peace of mind.

Take a look ahead, take a look ahead...

Now everybody's got advice they just keep on giving
Doesn't mean too much to me
Lots of people out to make-believe they're living
Can't decide who they should be.

I understand about indecision
But I don't care if I get behind
People living in competition
All I want is to have my peace of mind.

Take a look ahead; take a look ahead. Look ahead.

I've been thinking a lot about what it means to me. I'm not sure I can really relate to all the lyrics, but I can relate to the concept. Peace of mind.... It means trust, it means being comfortable in a relationship, it means knowing you are loved unconditionally and accepted, it means peace in places where one hasn't had complete peace before.

For me, I can't look ahead anymore and not have Nicole there. That's my peace of mind. It's not that I can't live without her; I know I can if I have to. However, I choose to have her in my life.... now and in all my future.
