How peace arises

How peace arises

Peace does not come from doing less.
But from doing what is right.

You can have a schedule full of things that give you energy.
Or an empty schedule and still feel restless.

Peace is not the absence of activity.
Peace is the presence of alignment.

Alignment between what you do and what you find important.
Between your outer life and your inner direction.

When that alignment is not there, everything feels heavy.
Even the little things.

When that alignment is there, you have energy.
Even for the big things.

So the question is not: what can I cut out?
The question is: what gives me energy and what only costs me energy?

And that question requires honesty.
Honesty about what you really find important.
