Peace is not something that comes from outside.
And not what should always be.
Sometimes you get angry - and that's okay.
sometimes sad Sometimes anger. Sometimes fear.
The Buddhist way is not about "always being Zen".
And about not hiding. don't run away
see. be. get.
True calm is not the absence of emotions. It's the freedom not to be them.
It's like an ocean: there are waves on the surface. But deep inside there is a silence that nothing shakes.
