Is peace found
only
in either
happiness
or the acceptance
of something lesser?
Are we
even meant
to have peace?
Many of our idols
throughout history
struggled greatly,
whether in public
or private;
so is that the trick,
to just learn
one day
that some aspect
of the peace
we are seeking
will never exist
on this earth,
and to take joy
in just living,
not judging
each day
as being
good or
bad?
I may give
that a shot,
hoping
for a new way
forward.
