Hehe, I thought you were a single JW
I was making a funny / sarcastic comment.
What actually brings me peace is.... Jehovah.
And since you had to bring it up, I'd like to take a moment and tell you about Jehovah. He is the creator. He made everything you see, hear, smell, touch and taste. All of these things that other people are attributing to their peace, whether it be kissing, or playing music or walking along the beach or whatever, came from Jehovah. You have him to thank for it. So while everyone else ignores the almighty creater, and Divine Inspirerer of all things, I will mention him as the source of true peace.
Jehovah is love. He is the very personification of love. And it was with love that he gave his only begotten son as a ransom sacrifice for the sins of mankind. However, this beautiful gift does not guarrantee that everyone will be saved. Oh no, you might think that it does, but it doesn't. In fact, it is only those who exercise faith in that gift are the ones that will be rescued out of this wicked world and into a new world, a paradise on this very planet Earth.
I am at peace when I realize how futile man's works are and how swiftly they will be undone on that Final day of Judgement, when Jehovah's King, Michael, also known as the resurrected Jesus Christ, leads the Holy Angels into battle against the world rulers of this planet. All of the presidents, kings, and leaders who oppose him will perish. Then Jesus will capture and imprisson Satan the Devil along with his demons into a spiritual prison where they will be inactive and away from humankind for a thousand years. Then they will be let loose upon this planet once again, but for only a short while, as a test for humanity, which by that point, will have reached perfection in mind and body.
Many humans will rebel and sin and turn against God and loyal humankind. However, quickly will Jehovah act and destroy not only those rebellious humans, but all of the demons, and even Satan himself will actually die, perishing in the figurative lake of fire, or second death.
The thousand year reign of Christ Jesus will bring a great blessing to mankind, both to those then living as well as to untold billions of humans who will be resurrected to life, to be given the choice to change their way of life and live according to God's rule. If they submit to Jehovah's loving rules and obey his son, they will come to know God's love as well as that peace you all seek. If they do not, they will be promptly put to death once again, but will not be brought back. That is the second death.
Finally, after that test at the end of the thousand year reign, all of humankind will become Jehovah's children, and we will then know what real peace means.
That is what brings me peace.
Top that.
