PEACE 9/11/09






PEACE


PEACE...it's something worth striving for. Internally, in one's personal life and among all people. What can each of us do to advance the cause of peace? One small step can be taken by each of us and it can further the cause. The step of which I speak is personal responsibility. We can think about how we speak and how we treat the people we come into contact with each day, at work, at play or anywhere along the way. If we treat people with kindness, regardless of how they may respond, this is the step each of us can take. If we seek to lower the volume of our voice when we are upset by something or think to calm ourselves before we demonstrate anger this is the small step we can take. There are many small steps to be found in applying yourself to becoming a more peaceful person and in so doing you will be contributing towards a more peaceful world. Perhaps on this day, 9/11/09 we might consider declaring PEACE.
