People lock themselves up, always wanting silence, isolating themselves in the search for peace and calm. But if we cannot learn to have peace of mind when there is chaos around us, our minds will be very easily agitated. We will become angry at others for disturbing our peace. We will be irritated at the smallest fly or noise, so that our chances for peace of mind become slimmer and slimmer, as we have placed too many conditions on something that we could have at any moment, regardless of what is going on around us.
