In all things, I strive for peace. I strive to be at peace with others around me. I know that not everyone is my friend, but I do strive to be at peace with even my enemies. When I have peace, I can say my life is good no matter what it looks like on the surface and no matter what obstacles I may be going through. If I have peace, I’m good, and I feel good. I feel at one with myself.
Yet, striving for peace is not everyone’s objective, unfortunately. Some people strive to create problems and ultimate chaos. They don’t like peace because they can’t comprehend it. Their lives frequently consist of downward spirals of drama all around them. They live for drama, and drama seems to permeate through their bloodstream. This, I have no control over. I can only manage the various states of my life.
In fact, for some people drama seems to give them life while peace gives them boredom. For the most part, narcissistic types will always tell me that I’m boring and have no life. If that be the case, I’m good, because I do have peace. I’d most rather choose peace over drama anytime. I don’t need drama all around me even if I like a little adventure every now and again. Even times of adventure can be peaceful.
When one strives for peace, it truly shows in the way one handles things. In my push to have peace, I try to navigate challenges with thoughtfulness and self-awareness, even when faced with difficult people or situations. My commitment to peace and healing, both for myself and others, is very important to me. I heavily protect my energy, stand in my truth, and strive for peace. It’s always the right path for me.
