There is a painting that really describes it best-
There is a storm in the ocean, trees blowing everywhere- etc- in the bottom corner of the picture there is a bird sitting calmly hidden from the storm behind a rock.
Peace for me is knowing God can hide me in the clef of the rock, even when the storm is all around me.

Peace for me is sitting by the ocean and listening to the sound of the waves coming in and the birds gathering their treasure of food as the waves retreat. I can feel the warmth of the sun and the cool of the ocean breeze. At that moment I know that only God could make something so beyond words.

Psa 119:165 Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them.
The world Yerusalem. is made up of two words (Yarah) - Meaning to point out, to instruct to teach.......
from Strongs Concordence......
3384 yarah yaw-raw' or (2 Chr. 26:15) yara; {yaw-raw'}; a primitive root; properly, to flow as water (i.e. to rain); transitively, to lay or throw (especially an arrow, i.e. to shoot); figuratively, to point out (as if by aiming the finger), to teach:--(+) archer, cast, direct, inform, instruct, lay, shew, shoot, teach(-er,-ing), through.
And Salem - Meaning peace.
7999 shalam shaw-lam' a primitive root; to be safe (in mind, body or estate); figuratively, to be (causatively, make) completed; by implication, to be friendly; by extension, to reciprocate (in various applications):--make amends, (make an) end, finish, full, give again, make good, (re-)pay (again), (make) (to) (be at) peace(-able), that is perfect, perform, (make) prosper(-ous), recompense, render, requite, make restitution, restore, reward, X surely.
So the literal meaning of the Yerusalem is the priest who teaches peace.
The true preist who is teaching the true way to peace is now established here on earth, you must seek to find him he is the last days wittness!
Don't hid in the rocks like some will on the day of judgement...........
Rev 6:15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, HID THEMSELVES IN THE DENS AND IN THE ROCKS of the mountains;
Rev 6:16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:
Rev 6:17 For the great day of his judgement is come; and who shall be able to stand?

peace for me is the security in knowing God will provide for me, having hope in His continued blessings, and knowing that His Spirit has given me patience as a gift.

-And quiet. In other words, keeping to myself.
I guess some people don't like peace and quiet.
