“If we are to teach real peace in this world, and if we are to carry on a real war against war, we shall have to begin with the children.”
Mahatma Gandhi
In today’s world there are very few places set aside where “peace” is given a space for growth. Like the seeds of a flower, which need fertile soil to grow; peace needs its garden to blossom in.
The environment we provide for our children to grow in is what will decide the future of the world’s social environment; if we fill it with violence, fear, greed and conflict their future will likely contain the same.
The time has come for us to “Focus on Peace”.
“I am because you are.” A wonderful African saying that sums up our interdependence on each other and our environment. If we could embrace this view globally all the world’s children would inherit a beautiful future to grow in.
Please share with us your ideas, thoughts, and concerns about peace so we can learn from each other and build our network of peace.
Shanti,
Steve

Got Peace News?
| Categories: News Why is it that we don’t hear much about the good news that is always happening around us?
If one plane goes down its news, but the fact that daily 1000’s land without incident, who cares.
A violent act occurs in the West Bank and its front page stuff, 100’s of Palestinians turn out for nonviolent demonstrations, no mention of it.
News media focuses on the bad news,
or scarey news. 
You’ve heard the saying;
‘If it bleeds it leads.” And this gives us the impression of a world spinning violently out of control.
Got good news? Let us hear about it.
I’ll start;
one bit of really good news is that the people who want to live in peace all around the world far outnumber the violent. We need to empower them.
Namaste,

Peace Focus - Let's share peace.
We are what we think, speak and do. If we fill our lives with violence and fear then our world will reflect that, but when we choose to make space for peace and hope in our lives our world can take on those qualities.
