Striving for inner peace

I found the following quote on Gratefulness.org:

Instead of condemning others, strive to reach inner peace. Keep silent, refrain from judgement. This will raise you above the deadly arrows of slander, insult and outrage and will shield your glowing hearts against all evil.

-- St. Seraphim of Sarov


The fundamental aspiration of inner peace will definitely alleviate and prevent suffering and that's a powerful motivator!
