At peace? Not entirely.

As far as maturity goes, I've realized recently that I know a lot more than I thought I knew, yet not as much as I thought I knew.

Is obtaining this self "peace" a realistic goal for everyone?

I want to think it's the ultimate goal for every human to wanna achieve ''peace'' or as what others call ''peace of mind.'' I know it is for me...

As Julie mentions in her post above : Not living in the ''now” and projecting the past into the future would sure seem to me as one of the most significant obstacles on the path to achieving peace.

The other obstacle {at least for me}, would be unconditional love/acceptance. To a certain point, it's tough to always give without ever having a single expectation of getting back. I think those that are able to give like that, with no expectations, are the ones closest to achieving inner peace. For those who have made it and are capable of that type of giving - I both salute and envy you.

Ditto on what others have said – An excellent topic.

I am at peace. Of course, we know that being at peace doesn't mean that we don't have desires or needs. It merely means that we are happy and grateful for the here and now. I am very happy and grateful for HERE and NOW. I know that my feet are set upon a path that is beyond imagining. I am finding those who are meant to belong to me...and I am fulfilled in a way that only those who have had the same emotion can understand.

This was very simply and yet beautifully stated. I agree absolutely! I would add that when at peace, this kind of peace, we aren't inclined to "force" or "rush" things, which leads to richer relationships. In this life/lovestyle the right relationship(s) are, after all, the goal. Peace is a process that we perfect as we go.
