Making peace with ourselves

Frances Vaughan
October 1997 (Vol. X, No. 9)

Making peace with ourselves means accessing inner peace that can be cultivated and extended to others. Authentic inner peace does not mean living in isolation, but discovering our own true nature and living in harmony with other people and the environment.

and you will find that you can live
in a world that renews itself.
