To me peace is an undeniable attraction that so many search for but only if your truly devoted to it will you find it. It is a state of overall being where nothing is taken for granted and nothing is under-appreciated. A place where the pursuit of happiness isnt a problem because it has been found. A finding that tranquility is possible if we all want it.
