    If you had to be content with the state of the world before feeling tranquil, nobody would ever feel tranquil.

        🤦‍

        For most people, a prerequisite feeling for tranquility, is contentment. And trust me, no pacifist is “content” with the current state of the world.

          Look up the difference between “most” and “all”.

          Further, consider that not all people are pacifists.

          Finally, note how I go on to describe how one can feel things one otherwise wouldn’t, depending on what one is focused on.

          You have to willfully bend my words to misinterpret what I said to mean that tranquility is an impossible state for a person to be in.
