7 Keys to Peace

• Speak with Integrity; say only what you mean

 
• Accept Simplicity, never make things any more challenging than it really is

 
• Seek to improve on at least one thing in your personal life everyday without acknowledging the challenges that come with it

 
• Never focus more on the faults of others than those of your own; you’re always your own worse enemy

 
• Never exhaust your energy on problems you can’t solve

 
• Don’t use your words to speak against yourself, or against others

 
• Don’t take things so personally; nothing others do or say is a reflection of you

 

 

Peace can only exist if you want it to. When we are immune to the thoughts and actions of others, we won’t be the victims of endless suffering.

Coffee and Car Keys

Two things always made me think of adulthood when I was a kid: Coffee and Car Keys.
I always loved holding the keys in my hand after returning from some car visit I was sent to by relatives. It made me feel adult, as if I was actually the one driving. I think mentally I associated it with adulthood because every time adults came around they had car keys in their hand! Or maybe it was because it gave them the freedom to come and go. In any event, I came to hold my head up a little higher whenever I could walk around with those keys.

Coffee also reminded me of adulthood. It seemed that it was something that only grown-ups were allowed to do. If they weren’t drinking coffee they were drinking liquor lol. All this represented adulthood for me.

 
Feel free to list some of the things that reminded you of adulthood when you were a kid.
