According to writer and philosopher Ralph Waldo Emerson (and to many others), no one can give you peace except yourself. Do you remember the well-known story of the man who, looking everywhere for a treasure, ended up in his own garden? It is not easy to experience such truth because you are used to look for “things” outside yourself. In fact, you feel separated from the rest of the world and therefore tend to give others the responsibility of what happens to you. You - and most of us - don’t realize that everyone's life is tightly interwoven with the rest of mankind’s existence and that all human beings are responsible for their own personal choices (peace included).
