I think a great deal of that sense of wanting peace comes with age. I spent 23 years as a firefighter, which is nothing but wading into chaos and turmoil for other people. Now, at 51, I just want my old tractor, a little plot of land, strong fences, to love my family, and to have the remainder of my life in peace. Thank you for your words and wisdom.
I was a teacher… have been blessed to find that place of peace. A little land in the middle of nowhere, a few head of cattle, a mini donkey, some cats & dogs, 39 years married to a Godly man, and a life time walking with Jesus. Don’t get much better this side of Heaven! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 Thank both of you for your service to others in need Anna and Enfin, and God bless you. May our Father bless you and keep you, and give each of you that which you seek. In Jesus’ Name, amen. Shalom, gr
Men who’ve experienced and been tested with turmoil yearn for peace. Those who haven’t, seek to test themselves at every given moment… Former Marine here, GWOT Era 🤙
Funny i had that plot, tractor animals, pets and a holy then thou woman....she ended up destoying everything by screwing around.....life ain't easy is it? Now I'm back in the workforce busting my ass all over again in my 60's......
There is a nice song lyric by Doc Watson "Sitting on Top of the World" and goes like: " If you don't like my peaches Don't you shake my tree And get out of my orchard Let my peaches be"
This is something I love about horses, they love peace and no stress. I can deal now with annoying people and situations and remain at peace inside, but it took years.
Proverbs 9:10-12 “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding. For by me your days will be multiplied, And years of life will be added to you." If we stay in God's word, we will have the wisdom to stay away from things that hinder our peace. I've never been more at peace than I am when I'm on fire for the Lord. He gives us wisdom through His word.
Where I'm at, 64, worked 44y so far, bad work stress, family stress. Literally killing me. Near stroke level BP says doc. Thx for this Wayne. NW Washington.
I recently realized that I've been living life in a constant state of anxiety and I've been regularly having flashbacks due to undiagnosed C-PTSD. My whole life I was taught that I'm responsible for everyone else's peace, and that I wasn't allowed to care about myself until all the conflict around me was resolved. Problem is, there's no such thing as resolving all the conflict around you. So I've been living life just denying myself any peace or happiness because I never felt I'd done enough to earn the right. I appreciate this message. It's taught me that the real trauma I've been re-experiencing this whole time is just never pushing obnoxious, unhealthy people away - respecting myself, and only letting in those who can respect the rules of my space. I was ritualistically trained as a child to see that as selfish and sinful, and to see myself as always terrible for wanting it. But it's nature - the natural peace that I was told not to attain so that my parents could always have an easy time manipulating me. Thank you, Dwayne. I'm 28, I've been out of the house and married for 3 years now, but knowing this makes me feel like I'm finally ready to be the man I always wanted to be.
When negative thoughts start coming in, I say to myself, "I choose to be at PEACE right now". That usually either stops the negative thought or at least it doesn't allow it to suck me in to where I don't want to be. ✌
I grew up in a difficult situation…not a cowboy, neither a “country” person either…. i’ve never met you but as a young individual i see you as one of my mentors. Thank you for posting
I see people here who are pretty aged commenting, and it makes me realize how absolutely fucking grateful I am to have found such content at the young age of 22. I'm grateful that I willingly watch these kinds of videos cause I'm so fed up with social media and the fast life. Seriously Id take country life over city ANY DAY!
Yep. Get the hell out now. If you don't just do what it is you want to do "someday" , right this minute... You never will. The first step is the hardest. Just take a breath and put your leg out in front with faith things will be fine no matter what comes and STEP! After that it's a chain reaction and you are swept up in the flow. ..... By the way.. that's called LIFE
Thank you. I'm a teenager and I've struggled with anxiety since I was a child. I am a person who likes to be alone and I try to help others whenever I can, but I have never set boundaries in my life and this brings a lot of doubt and guilt in the decisions I make. I will change that and create my peace, thank you Mr. Dwayne for your words, I am very grateful.
Boundaries have been my issue for 40+ years. Value yourself and begin now. It will complicate your life if you let yourself be a doormat. You're worth it friend, take care of yourself.
@@TubiHonest-uf8cy just to say, my anxiety is something that i can only accept as a condition, is something that i have to deal with, to define boundaries is to do whats good/necessary for you, including the things that you cannot change about youself. (Sry for bad english)
I stopped my abuse from getting worse durring childhood n prevented other people from getting abused. Broke my engagement at age 18. I prevented being seduced by my teacher at Uni and after marraige i prevented my miscarraige when somebody sent bad spirit to me. By 20s i discovered astral projection n other stuff After vaccination I can remote view n telekenisis. I got distracted for years and for 2 yrs I remembered about my abilities and I teach others how to REMEMBER who they are
So I understand where I hold you, Dwaine, good man. Many say “I wish you had been my father”, but that doesn’t put it right. You’re ‘Grampa Dwaine’. You’re the role model, stability and wisdom that so many of us are lacking in this modern world without close community and strong family forms. A man that has been through hell and back, that worked through his issues and learned from life. An imperfect man, but wise man. Thank you Grampa Dwaine❤️🙏🏻✝️
As an older man I have been working on that. Occasionally I take what I call my "Amish buggy ride," I live in rural middle Tennessee and I'll get on a back road in the evening and cruise along at about 15 miles an hour. I also use that as my prayer time, it truely helps. Thank you for wisdom brother, keep it up, we who care for you and yours are listening. God bless,
Amen to that. In my younger days, I could be a mean, nasty S.O.B. As I got older, I learned to reflect back on my actions, and it scared the hell out of me. It was at that point, that I started to learn how to be at peace. It is a better way to live life.
Spirituality has been described as dealing w the stuff on the inside rather than just react. This is a talk about spirituality and being a growing up. Thank you 🙏
Me and brother have been both making strides this year to be men who aren’t in a hurry and aren’t stressed. Life has never been so precious to me as it has been the past few months.
how can I find peace in this world where 1) literal satanic stuff is happening full of pain and horror and 2) we all die without being able to change it thank you sir
This is the exact moment and exact video I needed to figure out how you made it all, and boy is this the life lesson! Warmest greetings and respect from Orthodox Christian from Serbia, Europe. Salut to you Sir and the plain wisdom you selflessly share. God Bless You. ❤
Peace is in Jesus. That's where I look for it. ETA: as Dewayne says, get the turmoil out of your life, mind your business. Set your boundaries. I've been trying this too, and it definitely helps.
Peace is within, no external force can press upon you if you do not accept. I suggest observing yourself in the third person perspective, look at how you react to things, ask yourself is this the person you want to be?
Try study some stoicism, there's a lot of good books by great stoic men. And don't be afraid of having faith. No matter what faith you chose, may you be at peace 🙏🏻
I subscribe to both of your Dry Creek and Tack Room Bible channels, and they've been unbelievably helpful and brought nothing but wisdom to my life, and I'm grateful for finding your content. I hope and wish nothing but the best for you and your family. God bless you, Sir.
This couldn't have come at a better time, Just went back to seeing a therapist for severe Depression, Anxitey, People pleasing, ASD and so on. One of the topics i struggle with is setting boundaries due to the people pleasing but day by day I want to find my peace and finally put my foot down, Thank you for the reminder and reassurance sir!
I am now 68 years old. I finally about five years ago, set boundaries and went no contact with the narcissistic people in my life. They caused me so much stress and anxiety that it affected my health. I am disabled and have had six spinal surgeries. .I am now at peace, I’ve excepted everything and I am a big believer in my relationship with Jesus Christ. I’m probably the happiest I’ve ever been. I don’t have many friends anymore .I have my relationship with my husband 30 years. We don’t socialize very often. . ❤
Your clear sight into the nature of the state of the world is a drink of water in the desert. The fruits of reason are evident in everything you share. Thanks Dwayne ❤
Dear Friend Dwayne, Thank You so much for Your clear words of wisdom, i will remember every single sence of it and create my peace and environment that keeps me in peace and harmony! You have the gift, mind and energy to make our earth a better place! God bless You! 🙏
every time life becomes more difficult I listen to this wonderful man. he improves my view on everything. I would very much like to come to the school myself, but I live in Belgium. god bless this man
Helping people find peace with God, is what a peace maker is to me. To start with Jesus and find peace of God, will eventually bring us to pursue peace with our neighbours. We need to remember, we are not home yet. God Bless.
I’m glad I realized that peace of mind comes from searching within spiritually through God. I’m only 24 and I’m thankful for everything ❤ God Bless you all
I had what I have called an unpeaceful home life growing up. I played sports growing up and went to work for a man who taught me how to frame houses. Very patient man. I would work hard all day and go to the gym in the evening to help “release” anger. I became a firefighter several years later, which of course, is stressful. Saw a lot of pain and suffering while doing my best with my crew to help alleviate some of the pain and suffering of others. I’m retired now but still keep busy and love woodworking and building stuff. I’ve realized that the peace I have is really God’s Peace that He gives to me when I make myself available and open to Him. I’ve learned that when I do my part by creating a “quiet place”, whether that be in a quiet little chapel, or an out of the way place in nature or even in my own home, then at some point during that quiet time God visits me with His Peace. I’ve always been somewhat introverted and a lone wolf, though I do like being around people, but I also like my “alone time” just to “be” and I do try to stay away from the noise of the world. I will say it’s been a long road to get where I am now and it’s not for the faint of heart. I also have learned that my strength to persevere is from God. He doesn’t ask me to be the strongest man in the arena, but to just keep getting up and walking toward Him and just not quit. Resting is fine, just don’t quit the journey.
Brothers and sisters (this coming from 27 years of strife and heartache) peace is in the Lord Jesus, it is in the scripture, peace is in our communion with our living God. What a wonderful peace. I love you all and what a wonderful channel ❤️
Respect is a vine with logic and reason as branches. Some people were never taught, some never learned. Some people are wired differently. No amount of empathy, logic, reason, want of remedy, cure, or removal of controversy will reach by any means applied. It's hard to accept that there isn't a way to have the conversation that leads to a handshake, a new beginning, or a clean end. If continued with the misguided or tangled wiring the carousel of continued misinterpretations or deaf ears will continue. Don't throw a rope to king Kong unless you know God of Haven walks with you. Some don't want to give up on hoping the change can come. Sometimes prayer and leaving it to God is the only answer. We don't learn this in school. Thanks for your work. It reaches. It connects. It's needed in today's society and communities. Whatever is left of it can be shored up and rebuilt, or just reminded of how we do.
Thank your for this. I am 24 years old, have had a lot of medical stuff happen in my short time here on earth, and I have learned a little bit about peace. Mainly that some people don’t like your boundaries, but it’s really hard when you have a very close relationship with a friend and they cross that boundary. Something I’m dealing with right now. Please keep doing these videos.
I grew up in an environment full of fighting, verbal abuse and exploitation.I get used to it. The art of Don't give a fuck. How to avoid the drama and how to take care of my self.I learnt how to be in peace. I learnt to respect my self. I learnt how to set boundaries, and never brake them. I built like that. It don't get any better... I'm growing and learning everyday how to become a better, more valuable person, with dignity and interiority. Thanks Mr Dwayne for sharing wisdom and knowledge to young fellas out there. Vlad, 19, from Greece.
I'm from Brazil and would like to thank you very much for your words of wisdom, they helped me to see that i was looking for peace in the wrong places.
I love how popular this message is, thank GOD for His peace. God’s peace is His gift to us who would find it. Those who use what power they are given to create turmoil never find it because while the water stirs it becomes muddy and unclear. Seek it where it CAN be found! Be still a while. Let the peace that exists already dawn on you too.
I hear it in your voice Dwayne and I'm sorry. Definitely understand. Thank you from the Idaho panhandle; I've really enjoyed the last couple years of your posts. Much peace to you and your family.
@@DryCreekWranglerSchool hope you're feeling better, physically well now. tough getting old. Thanks for the supportive logic in this vid, a road I had to take and now I feel OK, it's not me. I'm working on that peace ever day. I love your circle pen vids and the up close work on new animals, firm and gentle.
Peace - "the removal of turmoil". That's pretty good. I like also Grahame Cook's: "peace is not the absence of pressure. Peace is when the pressure on the inside equals the pressure on the outside". Different angle, but I believe equally as true.
I wish I had someone like this to have been able to talk to as younger man. His wisdom and the way he puts it into words is easy to understand. God bless you sir and your family!!
I am in this situation right now, the last year of my life has been a disaster. I'm trying to get a job and I hear nothing back from nobody. I wondering if I was going to make it through this but I'm slowly coming out of it. The only 2 friends I had have turned out to be dishonest at the least. I'm done with the drama and the bullsh*t from everyone. I was never taught anything about finding your own peace but I am figuring it out on my own. Peace is all I want in my life now. Some days are better than others, and some days I truly feel like I have fallen completely back down in the hole. It's like being out in the middle of the ocean in a row boat. Thank you for this video.
Thanks for posting all these talks on the internet for us Dwayne, I really cannot fully express how grateful I & I'm sure many others are for these discussions. You've helped a lot of people figure things out and see things differently, It means the world to all of us, thanks for everything you do Dwayne & I pray that one day I find myself with even just half as much wisdom as you.
@@cathycarroll3638 I’ve been open minded since I was a child. Raised catholic. Confirmed. Catholic school. Part of the church procession for years. Thanks but no thanks.
@@mushroomlegyou add 2 spaces after each period so i reckon youre pretty old. Do you disagree more with bible/church teaching or more so the ppl who claim they practice it?
Hello, Dewayne! Best regards from Eastern Europe ) I was just about to write a comment on whether you could do a video or include in one of your incoming ones the topic of intimidation. When someone is trying to intimidate you for whatever reasons, both in and outside of you, but I think this video answered my questions about that well enough. In one of your older videos you said that you have a heart for young people. Very rarely do I see someone translate their words into actions as unequivocally as you do it. The sheer fact that every time I listen to you talking about whatever it is that's on your mind, it feels like I'm in the same room sitting across from you, speaks for itself. It can be deceiving when you're down and yet the person you're talking to isn't saying what you'd like to hear. But in my experience, both personal and as an observant, the best help is the unapologetic one. All the best to you and yours!
Well said, as im from europe and we have our own fires to be put down, i can honestly say that peace ive found is conected to 3 things : ending 10 years of toxic relationship, as my friends ask me why ive whistand such years i always reply: i was hoping shell change. Second meeting my current dear Suzzy and that conects with the third point her introducing jesus and church to my life as for im eternaly gratefull. Yes ive found my peace on body and soul.
The greatest thing I did for my own peace was getting off of social media. During the jab time. I realized I wasn’t really friends with most of the people and the people I actually care about can call me. If you haven’t abandoned social media, I highly suggest it.
I did the same. Its crazy how much not having social media changes things. I cant even imagine having it now. I dont need access to people’s every thought and dinner picture. None of us need to have access to each other like that. Thats why we as a society have lost a sense of community and respect for our “neighbors”. We used to have privacy and keep certain opinions to ourselves because it was known that those opinions only cause unnecessary divides and resentment for our own people. Those opinions used to be likened to a fart in an elevator. Social media just has everyone forcing each other’s “farts” into their faces. 😂
Thank you 🙏 Dewayne. Good stuff! Peace and prosperity is the goal and neither can be achieved with a person who has an empty soul hidden behind a mask. Respect the dead as you respect yourself and leave them where they stand or lay. Render them irrelevant and tend to your own pasture. However, if that horse, bull, coyote keeps trespassing… well, even a humble virtuous cowboy knows and understands when it is time to put a horse down. Have no room for hate in your heart, but also have no tolerance for the trespasser. Mercy, forgiveness, and vengeance is in Gods hands and even He has washed His hands of them long ago. Stake your ground, build and maintain formidable boundaries, mend your fences, treat others as you wish to be treated, and take no $hit!
Amen. Real self-respect comes from a fear of the Lord and respecting / honoring God.. only after coming to an end of yourself, losing your life can you find it by living unto God. Peace is a fruit of the Spirit. When somebody grieves the Holy Spirit that seals us and lives inside of us, then we need to act accordingly.
Ahhh, confused, what God are you referring to? The God of Islam, the God of Mormonism, the God of Judaism, the God of Christianity, or maybe one of the others, each incompatible with the other? If there is one true God, how sure are you that any of the world's religions offers a reliable representation of Him or of His creation (Humanity)? We are 100% certain that most are necessarily a man-made deception, and at best, exactly one of them might align with Truth -- but which one? If any...
I'm subbed and watch but never comment. 3:30 minutes in. I can relate to every word so far. Matter of fact just had this exact situation at work. A younger buck tryin to convince me how I should feel about somebody. I had to shut him off. But not before I explained pretty much exactly what you said. I've worked very hard to eliminate negativity, stress and anxiety from my life! I continue watching ,...youre blowing my mind how much you just describe me and my situation and the changes I've had to make to BE AT PEACE! 💯!!
Dwayne, had to chuckle at the Ole" dog ear analogy " hadn't heard it in awhile. Another great word you shared. I've got to twik my budget & get some more Black Label. Here's to clear sky for the class, and may they absorb the lessons passed to them.
I agree. Not only is peace important for your health, but also to be able to think clearly and see the things for what they are. Most people nowadays are run by their emotions, they are overwhelmed, they are in fear and therefor they can't think clearly. They can't see that there are other options, other possibilities, because they feel trapped.
I am grateful for the opportunity to hear and grow from your wisdom and experience. Your words are heard, even over here in faraway Germany. I wish you all the best!
A war vet here suffering a lil bit of ptsd... i came into this conclusion when i finished my service but i always thought that there's something wrong with not wanting to be the same person i was i had to clear my closet and make a change... this video told me i made the right decision 100%. Thank you sir.
Peace of mind is among my most valued possessions. I thank The Most High for granting this to me amidst all l the chaos and drama in this world. Been through a lot and still have some time to go but darn it, I refuse to be stressed. It's not good for the mind, body, or spirit and I want to enjoy my life and all the things God has been gracious enough to give me.
Found your channel today and I am blown away by the timing of these videos. Then you post this and it's just aligning perfectly. Please make more, I find your wisdom important and society needs to hear it ❤
At 26, i found my peace long ago. With both parents passing, being married and starting a family, i learned long ago that its ok to cut people off that dont like your peace. the universe will bring the right ones in and kick the wrong ones out. This is such a sound minded video for someone struggling with decisions of "should i stop talking or hanging with this person.'' You dont need them, you dont need that drama, you dont need that stress.
I had to listen to this several times, and it's so true. I grew up in a household full of noise, chaos, and drama. Even at an early age, I've craved peace. People wonder why I'm so anti-social. It's because I absolutely loath drama. Unfortunately, like you said, people live for drama and chaos.
Listening to your advice is such a tremendous blessing Brother. My own Father died when I was was 16 and I am 45 now. You are invaluable to the Body of Christ. All Glory to God. God bless
Hebrews 12:14 follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord: One of the most misquoted scriptures I know. People forget about the follow peace with all men part. Thank you sir for what you're doing. It has helped me with my personal peace. God Bless
I am from India, I deal with trauma which makes me sabotage my life and rid myself off of anything good in life. I came across your channel and I try to find something good off of your advice to apply to my life. I just want some peace in life, just some peace from my own brain, thank u for making your videos sir
Your advice is clear and truthful. Boundaries are miscommunicated too often, but I appreciate your wisdom. May God continue to bless you and your family. Rideon!
Dwayne is the type of men the world needs, not quick to judge, willing to process information and make a fair thought. Willing to stand up for what he believes, willing to give in when its for the better. Willing to be quite in loud times. offering wisdom where he see's a need. politics are always a bad and touchy subject, but Dwayne could be a leader, to all.
Wow! Very true words spoken. Don't know where to start. Avoid turmoil is Very good, boundaries, Strong willed. Peace is eternal. It sure is not outside of us. Our society is not going to get better. Believe That! Peace to you and yours Dewayne. Thank You For your Insights! Very wise man.
Thank you for the reminder good sir. I just found your channel today and this is the second video I've listened to. You're blessed with an excellent speaking voice, and your reassurance for us who are going through unsteady times is held dearly. Your point is one that can easily be forgotten in the day to day, especially for those of us who are going through a period of growth, but it remains as true as ever. There's no finding peace by looking around us, but by looking within ourselves to make the decision to be stronger than our circumstances and keep it that way. I'm looking forward to more videos from you, and thanks for taking the time to talk to us.
I thank you for being such a righteous, beautiful soul .. My Mom just passed a couple of weeks ago .. she was a peaceful lady and had so much love in her heart .. I am lost right now being left with a family of destruction and chaos ... with tears I listened to you talk and knew it was truth .. I needed to hear these words .. I felt like we were sitting together .. especially when you said in your video to listen .. that really caught me some place deep .. every one comes into your life for a reason .. I truly believe that .. and you came at a perfect moment ... that talk meant everything to me .. I needed that peaceful soul to tell me how it is .. I understand how important my peace is .. My mom would have appreciated you being there for me with this video .. ... much gratitude and love to you and your family, Thank you
