Inner peace.

Introduction

Inner peace is commonly achieved through a harmless and simple process known as Death.

This is widely used by the common Man as a cure for a huge array of illnesses that are, left untreated, rather annoying, like cancer, schizophrenia and workaholism.


History


Inner peace was invented during the Stone Age by Tugg son of Fugg son of Yugg. An inventor, among many things, like his father Fugg (also known as the inventor of the wheel), he spent most of his time contemplating creative ideas while clubbing his wives. While most of his ideas were discarded after a few unsuccessful attempts (including 2nd-hand car trades, real estate investments, and insurance sales), some certainly caught the eyes of his fellow clubbers.

Inner peace was a concept that was so radically new during that period, almost no one understood the benefits. Certainly not Tugg, who was really trying to find a cure for cancer. A entrepreneur by nature, he understood that the best achievers do not just make full use of the first opportunity they see, they also create opportunities for themselves.

Though no one needed inner peace, he saw that such a pointless concept shouldn't be wasted, and set about creating a demand for this knowledge. It was not easy, convincing everyone that all their problems was caused by the turmoil in their souls. It was completely false, due to the fact that all they did was hunting and clubbing.

But in the end, everyone was convinced by his words, which were clearly carved into the 80-pound spiked club he always held in his hand. By hook or by crook, he had all his tribesmen sitting still for hours on end, and staring into a peaceful nothingness.






Inner peace.

Rediscovering yourself.

It is easy to say the words, but do you really understand what they mean?

Will you use them as an excuse to do what you have always wanted to do but never dared?

Or will you contemplate your actions, and figure out the best way to change yourself?

There are shortcuts. There are always shortcuts. You pay some guy with your blood, and he will tell you another way to live. He will have dozens of certificates you could have bought at $50 dollars apiece like he did if only you have the right connections.

Everything he tells you, you could have figured out if you had just sit down and thought about it.
Everything he tells you, you could have thought of but never dared to try.


Inner peace is a faraway idea that dwells in the depths of Mordor near the northern edge of Neverland. He flies with Peter Pan all day long and whispers sweet nothings into the ears of Cinderella.



One way to find inner peace is to let go.

Because there is a price of everything, and because it is the price of everything that causes most troubles in life.

But if you can only stop yourself from buying anything, you will be able to stop paying for everything.

And when you no longer have to pay as much, there is peace.

Thus, purge yourself of Desire.



Now what is desire?
