Message for 2012

Peace is not just an absence of violence or war. Among other things, it also involves a progress towards health, a reduction of poverty and moving towards environmental sustainability.

It is hard to keep going when the world seems to be against me. However, I have learned to see that the world is not against me—in the same way that it is not against any other peace warrior.

World focus is simply not on me. While others may not seem to take the time to know me well enough, the fact is their focus is on their life's journey. That is all. I will rely on the universe to let me be a drop in a vast ocean of life and appreciate that I can be myself just as I should let others live their own life; I can create my own small peace-centered works/world. My creations cannot be destroyed, for they become part of a conceptual world.  I will be careful to stay my own focus on a greater good, a center of peace, a stronger network of love. This little contribution is not complicated or impossible. It is as easy as breathing. I can give positive meaning to my life in a slow, methodical way, moving towards an internal, then eternal peace. 

Oneness is important. I will share my peace stories and as I would wish others to hear me, I will listen to them and appreciate their stories.  Through this sharing we will attain world peace —one person at a time in love. Always, ALWAYS, always in LOVE.
