PEACE OF MIND

When i think of peace what comes to my mind is tranquility. I feel that the word itself is very soothing and we lack the meaning of it in our society as a whole. peace reminds me of the hippie movements in the 60's and 70's to stop Vietnam war so i think of symbols flowers and drugs. Peace is something our world will never have simply because not everyone on any topic. theirs always going to be disputes on a certain matter. Peace can even be considered fictional because it will never be achieved unless we were some perfect utopia of machines that have already been pre programmed. On the other hand, peace can also be something that we as human beings strife to feel, to work towards. So in a sense peace can be the key to a perfect life. In my mind peace is me sitting by the ocean watching the sun come up over the horizon, and I'm sitting there with my eyes closed focusing on the sounds of waves splashing against the shore, the smell of the air, the cool breeze brushing my against my body almost as if the breeze itself is brushing off all my imperfections all my problems, pains, sorrow, all my impurities. Its that moment that i like to picture peace at its finest.

  1. I like the way you think about being in peace, but what if veryone thought like you, would the world, in general, be at peace?
