Well, hi, everyone. It's been a while since my last writing, and uhm... yeah, I have postponed this assignment for a month (or more, perhaps), so for the sake of having my grades increased... I'm gonna finish this right now. ((I really apologize Mrs. Wiwin for this case))
OK, so, today's topic is PEACE. Hm... I bet each of you must have different opinions about that word. Some of you may think about Palestinians whose rights is taken away by the Israels, or maybe you'd imagine the situation where there is no any fights nor bullied kids in a school, and so on.
Peace, to me, is the condition or situation when there is no violence, no war, no hypocrites around, happiness is spread everywhere, and where everybody just feel... peaceful, and have calm minds. However, I think it is kind of hard to have such peaceful lives like what we have imagined in today's life, isn't it? Well, let's take a look at this quotes first:
Yes, it is absolutely true what the quotes above said; we can never obtain peace in the outer world until we make peace with ourselves. Let's back to our previous talks. It is hard to find a peace in today's life. The war between Palestine and Israel and bullied kids at schools (as I said before), social, economic, and political problems in a country, and many more have made peace seem vague. Even us, as students, hardly feel the peace because of several reasons that comes from school, such as overload tasks, daily test, high standard of minimum grades for each subjects, etc. Moreover, we might think that this life is full of problems that we hardly be peaceful. Now, let's go back to the quotes above. The fact is, we make ourselves as the keys. It is our minds, it is what we do that determine whether we'd be peaceful or vise versa. If we think that school is stressful, then it would be stressful; and it would bring less peace to our lives. If we think a lot about something that might be a big problem for us, without even try to solve it, then it would also bring much burden in life. Instead, we should face our problems not only with such deep thoughts about it--which just make us be more stressful and frustrated-- but also with an act to solve it as well. Or, the simple thing to do is actually to suggest our own minds, our own selves, to not make so many things as a burden or is stressing for us. Truthfully, I myself ain't those kind of individual I said above, but let's we try together to be so. Perhaps, after that, we will be more peaceful and by that we can obtain peace in our circumstances, like what is said in the quotes by Dalai Lama.
