PEACE POST SEPTEMBER 21st 2013 by M.C.V. Egan
Today we celebrate the UN’s INTERNATIONAL DAY OF PEACE, the
resolution to have loud voices for PEACE and a special day was passed in 1981;
the first celebration was in 1982.
If we can at least try as a society to visualize the
possibility of PEACE perhaps someday we will be able to accomplish this. It is
a great tool to teach said desire tour children, so that they perhaps find a
way to instill PEACE as a way of life.
On a personal note, I spent my formative years in the
1970swatching the Vietnam War on TV. Literally eating dinner as I watched
soldiers from both sides, kill and die.
Inasmuch as there were Peace movements the conservative
society that surrounded me represented an acceptance of war. It was simply an
accepted principle. Historically it has been an accepted necessity, countries
are born through bloody revolutions and re-formed through just as bloody civil
wars. We watch it every day.
There have however been great examples of NON violent changes
with great results. As per Wikipedia:
A nonviolent revolution is a revolution using mostly
campaigns of civil resistance, including various forms of nonviolent protest,
to bring about the departure of governments seen as entrenched and
authoritarian. While many campaigns of civil resistance are aimed at much more
limited goals than revolution, generally a nonviolent revolution is
characterized by simultaneous advocacy of democracy, human rights and national
independence in the country concerned. In some cases a campaign of civil
resistance with a revolutionary purpose may be able to bring about the defeat
of a dictatorial regime only if it obtains a degree of support from the armed
forces, or at least their benevolent neutrality.
My favorite principles and acts of a peaceful resolution are
those from Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi:
A nonviolent revolution
is not a program of seizure of power. It is a program of transformation of
relationships ending in a peaceful transfer of power.
I hope you enjoy the Peace Hop, ponder on Peace and spread
the possibility.

Thank you Suzy, you have been so supportive. Truly grateful
DeleteThe words peace in time, makes me think of collectively working towards peace in the world. However, it starts on an individual level by working on peace within ourselves, in our homes, and families, and every aspect of our lives. When we learn to first implement it in our own life, it will have the butterfly effect, and spread outwards.
ReplyDeleteThat is so true Michelle !
