Preserving Peace.

Wholeness, righteousness, and prosperity, are the words that mean peace. Only a few people have it and only a few know the real meaning of peace. Peace is the feeling when a person feels whole. The feeling of living in harmony with oneself. Achieving peace is an inward process rather than an outward one. People who look for peace in the outer world are mostly incorrect. He never will find it as true peace is found within. One can spread peace by giving out good and positive energy. But for that, he must be at peace within. Everything starts from within. There are ways to find or achieve true peace in life. The Stoics have suggested many ways to achieve true peace, some of them are as below - 

Stillness is one of the most effective ways to achieve peace. Stillness means sitting alone in a silent environment without doing anything but connecting with oneself. Spending a very short amount of time alone in quite a place can reduce a lot of stress. Nothing can be more beneficial for your brain and mind than stopping where you are and spending some time enjoying one's own company. In a life full of chaos, we seldom enjoy what one of the great minds has to say about ourselves. 

Reflecting on one's life is very important. This means slowly examining what really is happening in our life. An unexamined life is a life wasted. Evaluating the events that are occurring in one's life gives him the opportunity to know the true meaning of life and events that are happening. This reduces a lot of conflicts and unnecessary heat that is produced in one's life. We are way too immediate in judging the events or people that we speak or react without thinking. This produces a lot of conflicts which can be avoided by reflecting on life's events. 

There is something good in the worst moments of your life, you just have to have the eyes to look for them. A little shift in your perception can change your life. Viewing life with a little positivity helps a lot. An eye full of gratitude is the way of achieving true peace. Find something beautiful in the middle of the chaos because there always is something good going on. Focus on the good and life will get better. Unleash the power that Gratitude holds. 

Always live by the code. Have some principles in life. If it's not true, don't say it. If it's not right, don't do it. The rules to a happy life are extremely simple but we are so busy doing unnecessary extraordinary things, we forget the simple ones. Just keep it simple and real and ignore the bullshit voice that is present around your head. Doing the tasks in a simple and right manner will lead you to true peace. 

Finding peace in the outside world is a waste of time. Just sit back and listen to what the best mind has to say. Listen to that, let the thoughts flow, and take deep breaths, there is true peace. Don't go wander around the world finding something that is already present in the back of your mind and soul right within you the whole time. 

Thank you for reading it peacefully,
