Seeing the Peace Within

I always judged my experiences based on the thoughts, sensations, and feelings these experiences produced. This made it difficult to discover the infinite peace already inside of me. I looked inside expecting to discover positive feelings, sensations, and deep ideas, so I missed the unconditioned peace that was always there. It was my thoughts about what this peace should look like that stopped me from seeing it. These same thoughts also prevented me from understanding that this peace was with me always – – it was the looking for it that prevented me from seeing it.
