Finding Peace Within Myself

A short reflection on peace, identity, and the long journey of learning who you really are.

By Moriah CPublished 10 months ago 1 min read

To find peace, you must know yourself.

To know yourself, you must find peace.

And to find peace, you need to ask yourself:

What is peace?

And to find that answer, you must be yourself.

Once you think you have an answer, ask yourself:

Is that correct?

And if so, ask again:

Did you find yourself?

To find yourself,

you must find your inner peace.

And to find your inner peace,

you must find your inner self.

And to do that takes time —

sometimes years.

But time never stops;

it keeps flowing.

It’s like a puzzle that never ends,

or a river that never stops —

it just flows and flows.

Like a lost puppy

trying to find its way back home.
