Love of wisdom
#9
RE: Love of wisdom
Well I think "peace" is in degrees. There is no limit to amount of peace you can have. So you can always want more peace and perhaps we would never be satisfied.

But there is still peace even if there is moments of distress, grief, anger or disappointment.

Moreover, wisdom can be to make the best of the world as it is. There doesn't have to be perfect peace to do that.
