Finding Peace In Your Life

By Simon Andrew


How can we find peace in our lives? Are there ways you can use to live a peaceful life? When we embrace peace as a way of life we can incorporate into our beings also. Unfortunately it is tough to actually find peace in the current world where weird things are taking place beyond our imaginations. For example, how can a university student wake up one morning and start shooting other students with no obvious reason and afterward takes his own life!

The 1st rule of peace is to understand that most individuals don't care or want to live in peace. Although our government claims that there are methods promoting peace but it is us who can instill peace among ourselves. The next part of this rule is to take responsibility for self.

You have got to be honest and ask yourself does your behavior in the world and within yourself really promote peace or a contrast that is hostility, anger and resentment which are all catalysts towards negative things. If you want peace you have to promote it and it starts with a peaceful attitude.

Know that if you don't promote peace and have an antagonistic nature you may be the one that is starting the turmoil. There is no peace for those that start the fight. A fight can be as simple as to continually bully someone verbally who you understand as being weak than you are. If you stand by and do nothing when a bully or an offender offends against an innocent person, then you are just as bad as that bully or offender.

Usually peace is won between two parties when both of the sides feel their grievances are met. If you're a victim of an aggressor in your life or the aggressor is continually attacking someone you know, then you need to sit down with this person and lay out the facts. When you sit down with him, inform him that his behaviour is creating hostility and he's going to create a situation that is not calm.

Keep in mind some people are just evil and you cannot change them. Such people don't want others to experience happiness in life. Also do not lose sight that liars do not promote peace as they pretend to. In this case like a work situation, you will only interact with them when absolutely necessary. Otherwise they ought to be totally out of your life. Also ensure there are witnesses to confirm the fact that you didn't start the situation. You were defending your life.

There isn't any compromising between intentions that are good or intentions that are bad. If you give into someone who is bullying you, then you won't have peace. Thus you have to fight for your peace at all costs.

Finally do not deal with any one that goes against your grain. It'll always be a source of stress. To have peace you have got to remove all that is disturbing your life. Finding peace in today's world isn't very easy. You have to really dig deep within yourself to find peace and maintain it always. That is the only possible way to actually have peace in this world today.
