We spend much of our lives conflicted within ourselves,
But he who has achieved peace within,
Will certainly bring peace to those around him.
Peace

There is small knowledge and then there is great knowledge.
Small knowledge is the everyday, mundane gossip
And the arguments of politicians;
Who is right today will be wrong tomorrow,
But nobody will remember.
But talk to me of love, of adventure, of romance or comedy –
And you speak to me in a language that echoes down the centuries,
Touching everyone.
So stop worrying about the small stuff and appreciate the greatest knowledge of all –
That we are on the journey of a lifetime,
And everyday is another opportunity to acquire wisdom in our quest for enlightenment.
