I think it sounds lovely. Although I think the relationship between external circumstances and internal peace isn't as strong as people expect.
But I've also long thought that it likely causes you a fair amount of pain to be caught between two cultures and two mindsets about the role of women and society. And you see the good in both, and most likely the bad in both. And that makes it hard for you to fully embrace either, which leads to pain. At least that's my impression, but I could be all wet. Or projecting a lot or something.
I don't know that there's any answer to that one. I think it comes with knowledge, because knowledge sometimes makes life complicated.
