Peace is one of those words that can mean so many things - absence of war, tranquility, a sense of well-being.
The older I get, the more I am attracted to "peace" as described in Wisdom Distilled From the Daily (a Benedictine book):
"... peace... is the power to face what is with the serenity of faith and the courage of hope, with the surety that good come from evil and the certainty that good will triumph."
Life is full of choices, but not everything that comes our way is our choice. Being able to deal with these situations with serenity and hope is the peace I daily need.
