identity is everything

You are an expression of God (love, peace, freedom, life, compassion).

You are NOT the summation of your actions and attitudes.

Experiment:

For one day look past yours and others looks, actions and attitudes and identify yourself and all others as expressions of God (love, peace, freedom, life, compassion).

then...

For one day identify yourself and others solely by their looks, actions and attitudes.

Then ask yourself which reality would you rather live in?

peace

Peace is the part of us which is conscious of (knows) who we are (an expression of God/all) whether we are living out of that reality or not.

Peace isn't something we need or don't have nor is is an experience we have, it is part of our being/identity.

Humanity pursues peace as though it exist separately, found in quiet places apart from the daily chaos of life (by a stream out in the woods, on a deserted beach looking out at the ocean, on a cliff high in the mountains). People go on holiday to 'experience' peace. Folks go to therapy to find peace. Some even commit suicide to escape the chaos and find peace.

Going to quiet places is helpful...not to 'find' peace but to train your consciousness to focus on the reality you are an expression of peace.
