Peace



We all strive for peace,
but sometimes it is a daunting task.

Because we may not understand
what peace really means.

There is a huge difference between
peacefulness and silence.

People say that we can only find
peace with God.

But I see struggles, confusion, and fear.

Where does peace exist?

The world is full of people striving for
power, money, and true love.

But where is the peace?

There are 24 hours in a day, and time passes by quickly.

Every minute and second of our lives is precious, have you ever wondered where time finds peace?

Don't tell me, "the night is still young" because I tell you, you wasted your time.


Peace is freedom.
