The story is a well known tale of how each of us perceive peace. It is a well known tale of how, human being over the years have known to be guided or misguided by their interpretations of things, especially a thing so difficult to attain such as peace. To have peace in your life is to have peace in your heart. To have peace in your heart is to be at peace with others. Its only when we are calm in our mind, words and heart, can we be fully peaceful with our surroundings and the people in it. Among-st all our daily, busy lives, we mustn’t forget to have the one part of our life dedicated to this extremely calming emotion that gives us a sense of responsibility over yourself and some much needed lonesomeness.
