I attended a funeral this past weekend and it got me reflecting on death (yes, even more so than usual) and how important it is to make peace with our own mortality. In today’s episode, I share some of the conversation I had with my wife’s grandfather just a few days before he passed and explore the difference between happiness (what we think we’re after) and inner peace (what we’re truly searching for).

Takeaways

Contemplating death and making peace with our own mortality can lead to valuable insights and a deeper understanding of life.
Love should be put into practice in our daily lives, and it is one of the most important aspects of our existence.
Inner peace is a state that can be present regardless of external circumstances, while happiness is a fleeting emotion that is often dependent on external factors.
Focusing on inner growth and handling life's challenges with acceptance can lead to a more fulfilling and peaceful existence.
