International Peace Day 2012: What will You Do For Peace Day?

                  Gandi

 

is peace something that resonates with you and your being?

is there anything you can do to bring peace to the world?

Yes, there is! 

  • Peace starts at home
  • Peace starts within ourselves
  • Peace is being kind to our family and neighbors
  • Peace is an inner quality that you control with your reactions to any given situation 
  • Think about peace for 5 minutes.. nothing else
  • Do something nice for a stranger
  • Help an elderly person
  • Refrain from getting angry for JUST ONE DAY!

Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi  said:  Be the change you want to see in the world! 

Let's unite and "Be the Peace we want to see in the world!" 

We will never have global peace if can't live it at home.

This UN link shares a bit more about the International Day of Peace also known as #PeaceDay

"I urge everyone, between now and 21 September, to think about how they can contribute. Let us work together ...... sustainable development, sustainable peace… and a secure future for all."  UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon

"The International Day of Peace, a.k.a. "Peace Day" provides an opportunity for individuals, organizations and nations to create practical acts of peace on a shared date.......Anyone, anywhere can celebrate Peace Day. It can be as simple as lighting a candle at noon, or just sitting in silent meditation. Or it can involve getting your co-workers, organization, community or government engaged in a large event. The impact if millions of people in all parts of the world, coming together for one day of peace, is immense."

Could you stick with this pledge for peace for 40 days?  Try it with your family, co-workers and friends! 

                                  Peace Pledge

Carra- Many are suggesting a moment of silence at noon as well.  Delray Beach is having an event on Saturday at the Library.  I love the 7 point Peace Pledge.
