While I understand peer pressure and 'following the norm' - i think, relationships are like 'peace'. It is dang easy to be peaceful in my room with the candle lit, but darn hard to keep that peaceful feeling when 'out in the world' - yet, I believe that is the goal - to carry and bring that peace forward.

Indeed, to be at peace with what you are, wherever you are, at any time.

I also try to maintain peace in social situations, but sometimes get nervous. Compounding the problem, I get tense about the nerves and fight that feeling and the whole thing can spiral out of control. I need to be ok with the nervousness, let go.
