There is peace alone on the mountaintop with nothing to distract you from your contemplation, but you can't live there. Instead, you need to find peace where you can find it. Amid the frenetic bustling of a world that wants you running here and there, distracted from the eternal by the trivial and the ephemeral, it is necessary to make time for self-reflection. Are the moments that rick past meaningful and life-affirming? Or are they spent desperately keeping track of schedules, routines, and objectives? If you find yourself feeling out of balance and out of step with the world, take the time to firmly plant your feet on the ground. With the simple act of standing still within an ever-moving society, you may begin your journey to knowledge and wisdom.
