Becoming a Person of Peace - Part 5

Bearded Wisdom with Les McDaniel

What do you see when you look at yourself in the mirror?

For most people, what they see is a soul unworthy of love. We are our worst critics. We have been taught that to be accepted, we must behave, look, and think a certain way. But here's the truth, all the stuff you see in the mirror that you’re ashamed of is not you. It’s the lies society has fed you ever since you were a child to prevent you from experiencing the full depths of peace.

In today’s episode, Les breaks down the characteristics of people of peace and why we all need to take responsibility for our peace because society wants us to live chaotic lives.
