The Order of the Day … ( 05 / 15 / 2013 )
“ As I watch the world unraveling one country at a time , I remember my youth and the dreams that propelled my idealism . Well , I am happy to report that those dreams never died . Despite all the chaos & the corruption , I still say it is all possible . I still say that Peace is not merely a dream …
And yet if we are ever going to realize Peace , then we have to take it all the way down . We have to do it like we mean it . We have to do it with conviction and with courage . We have to leave all our doubts and fears behind and do it with Kindness … We have to stop merely talking about it and wishing for it , and we have to start Being the Peace we so long to see .
Some of us – quite a few of us , actually , are deeply committed to this turning . And it is not a mere trending turn , as the media insists and as our governments want us to believe . No , it is far beyond the temporary transitions of religion or politics . This is a deeply ingrained sociological phenomenon – a slow and steady turning towards Peace that will be as lasting as it is inevitable .
More & more , people all over the world are resonating with the recognition of what is possible . If we but choose to share generously and parse equitably , then there is more than enough for all of us -- and surely it is time for Peace .
