Do You Have Inner Peace? = In our volatile, reactive world, we all desire inner peace. We can’t obtain inner peace from anything external, such as money or situations going our way. Inner peace comes from making a decision—understanding that it isn’t what happens to us but what happens in us that makes the difference. Outside influence can’t give us inner peace, nor can it take our inner peace away.
