“Peace is not the mere absence of war; it is a virtue, a state of mind.”
🌿 Overview

🪶 Key Reflections
Peace is a practiced virtue, not a passive state.
Understanding replaces blame with perspective.
Freedom lives in awareness, not control.
The rebel’s strength is the ability to see through chaos without losing center.
💭 Beautiful Question

🔔 Closing Reflection
Peace is the still ground beneath understanding.When you see clearly, you act freely — and from that freedom, love becomes possible.
