I value both... In some instances, I have chosen inner peace over principle. I had an experience recently where my first reaction was to go with principle and then within seconds, I chose peace. Everything turned out good, and a lesson learned for me. I have shared this with others, and have gotten different reactions.


"You should of this, or I would have that". If I would have chosen to argue, based on principle, I would have expended energy that doesn't make me feel so well. The outcome would have most likely been different too...

My first thought was to go with principle, which would have made me not accountable.

Sometimes peace may feel better for you, and other times principle will give you more peace. Whatever choice you choose, there is no right or your wrong. No blame, no shame...YOU are in control of YOU, Do what makes you feel at peace.
