Features: What can bring us peace in a more tangible way is right around us, such as gifts that represent love. For example, we often face dust and ugliness, are troubled by noise, and work relentlessly under pressure. Then, the beauty, tranquility, and freshness of the countryside might be the moment of peace we seek. However, without "inner" peace, it is difficult to fully benefit from "outer" peace, let alone live harmoniously with each other. For the author, inner harmony and unity are closely linked to peace with God. It is like the calm eye of a hurricane, existing amidst chaos. It is also like yeast, highly active and serving as a medium for change: that profound and subtle peace—we need it not only because it enhances the quality of our current lives but also because it comes from God, stirring in us a strong longing for a peaceful future.
