Words of Wisdom for the New Year

Staying Peaceful

Desires cause peace to disappear. You think that acquiring things will make you feel secure, but the reality is that the more you have, the more fear there usually is of losing it, and the further you are from peace. Desires are the cause of all conflicts. Once you have satisfied one, you are aiming for the next and want more. When you want something and cannot get it, you become frustrated. Learning to be free from desires is learning how to stay peaceful.
