I saw only recently (past 5 years) that pursuing inner peace, for yourself and not what others want for you, is a reasonable and attainable goal. Not listening to all they tell you about happiness, not acting on everything they tell you to. Rather, listening, observing their take on it, and oftentimes deciding to ignore it because it's senselessly misguided. Finding it on your own. Learning what makes you tick and what truly offers you happiness. Realizing that misery and sorrow is crucial for one to know happiness - contrast.
But in telling, I destroy the journey for another.
