Today there are many problems I hear about the world. The news tells us that everything we think, everything we say, and everything we do is judged. We have no one to set examples because people who are supposed to be setting examples are showing that they are imperfect. Every night the news has stories about violence, abuse, neglect because those are the things that sell. There are also wonderful stories of courage and valor. Negativity is a mindset. We need to rise above it; we can rise about it.
Peace is our choice. It is a matter of choosing: do I want to be happy and peacful or do I want to be miserable and in chaos.
We must be the peacemakers in our families and our neighborhoods. Since this is the beginning of a new year, I can think of no better way of starting a new year than with the promise of peace--even if it is more inner peace.
Happy New Year!
