Peace Lies In Victory

“Self-acceptance comes from meeting life’s challenges vigorously. Don’t numb yourself to your trials & difficulties, nor build mental walls to exclude pain from your life. You will find peace not by trying to escape your problems, but by confronting them courageously. You will find peace not in denial, but in victory.” – J. Donald Walters
