Peace Breeds Peace
Instead from this day, this world, the events and people in it need to understand what we reflect to yourself comes back to you. Give joy, love, respect, understanding, creativity and good cheer, and get back much of the same. However we must also know that this is not to be expected but must occur naturally. If we only give joy to receive joy, if we only give love to get love in return and we only provide respect where we expect respect in return then I say we are doing it for all the wrong reasons.
Your outlook is more than just what you think of the world. It is what
you make of the world, of your life, and you have every reason to make
it the best you can imagine.
We talk about global peace and hold terrorism as the culprit. But think, when we cannot even keep peace with our own selves, how can we talk about peace at such huge levels? We fight with people, our loved ones, for reasons completely unnecessary. It takes less than a second to burst out in anger, doesn't it? There lies the irony. Fighting for peace.
Martin Luther King Jr. gave the formula to maintain peace in the world. How relevant and meaningful are his words, “If we are to have peace on earth, our loyalties must become ecumenical rather than sectional. Our loyalties must transcend our race, our tribe, our class, and our nation; and this means we must develop a world perspective.”

Each one of us must learn to treat others
as we would love to be treated by others.
So I ask of you all peace for
peace and it begins with us.
