Inner peace

For me, inner peace will always be closely related to 'no worries'. Whether it depends on events in life or the actual choice, like in the song Don't Worry Be Happy, the inner happiness will be determined by how much more to be glad about than to be angry about. Of course there is stuff you can't control, dear friends or family members dying or getting very sick for example. But what I really want to say, is that you will always be able to choose the better perspective to everything that happens to you in life. I even think that sadness is something beautiful that we can share with close ones. One way to put the choice of perspective is of course the classical saying "always look on the bright side of life". Optimism and positive spirit is obviously also related. Again don't misunderstand this as saying you aren't allowed to see the sad parts in life, no question that being totally open is the best, you are not supposed to ignore and close your eyes, what you really are choosing is what to do with what happens in your life. Admit that the world isn't perfect and then on the other hand see all the amazing great wonderful that there is. The feeling of being here together, even when struggling. Passion and love is not without torns, everybody knows that. So choose! And live life! :)
