“Peace is not merely a distant goal that we seek, but a means by which we arrive at th at goal.”- Martin Luther King Jr.

“We look forward to the time when the Power of Love will replace the Love of Power. Then will our world know the blessings of peace.” -William Gladstone

If there is to be peace in the world,
There must be peace in the nations.
If there is to be peace in the nations,
There must be peace in the cities.
If there is to be peace in the cities,
There must be peace between neighbors.
If there is to be peace between neighbors,
There must be peace in the home.
If there is to be peace in the home,
There must be peace in the heart.

-Lao Tzu

“Mankind must put an end to war, or war will put an end to mankind…
War will exist until that distant day when the conscientious objector
enjoys the same reputation and prestige that the warrior does today.” – JFK

Powerfully Positive Peace by Lauretta

As a writer under constant deadlines, I look forward to the holidays as a time when schedules relent, allowing more time to spend with dear ones. Since I love to cook, I find it peaceful (although somewhat raucous as well!) to have friends and family over for festive meals together. To keep my sanity when the holidays get too hectic, I remember to keep up my yoga … take snowshoe hikes in the snowy woods … and enjoy the stark beauty of nature in the deep freeze. I find peace in giving gratitude for all the wonderful things in my life – from good health and loving family to powerfully positive relationships with friends, colleagues and of course the clients who enable me to earn a living. I am very mindful of those less fortunate, so I find an extra measure of peace in giving to several charities at this time of year, especially those that feed the hungry such as Second Harvest, and groups like Doctors Without Borders. Knowing I have contributed in some small way to a better life for others helps me to sleep at night.

Wishing you, dear reader, a joyous and peaceful Holiday season!

“Imagine all the people living life in peace. You may say I’m a dreamer, but I’m not the only one. I hope someday you’ll join us, and the world will live as one.” [John Lennon]

“When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace.” [Jimi Hendrix]

A Peace Poem by Julie

Julie — Tue, 09 Dec 2008 13:08:34 +0000

Peace is…

Prayer and thoughtful repose…

Peace is…

Everything mindful of the greater good…

Peace is…

Absence of stress, especially after a good “sigh” or walking alone in the snow with nothing but the sound of your feet…

Peace is…

Calmness and contentment felt during a morning sunrise at the beach (or even when your kids are all home under one roof, yet the only sound is the hum of their voices)…

Peace is…

Everyone’s positve energy coming together…

Peace is…

Goodwill to all!

Composed by Julie Dolan, Vice President
