Sowing seeds of peace: cultivating a world of love and respect
*I don't know about everyone but a peaceful world is what I am always dreaming of. A place where we can leave together without war, fighting, hate or hurting one another. But humans and war or fighting are like 5&6. Sometimes I think that the world I think of is nothing but a dream, something that is too perfect to be real, but I believe it is possible.
To have peace in our world, we have to start by having peace in our hearts. We have to learn to forgive, to control our anger and to love one another. Some people say, love your neighbors as you love yourself but I say love your neighbors as Jesus love you. Yes, as Jesus loves you. Most of us don't really love ourselves so we can't show love to others.
Some people fight because of small misunderstanding or argument. Some even fight over religion or culture differences but if we respect one another even when we don't agree, it's definitely going to be a big step forward.
One thing I believe it's important we must do is to teach people from a young age. Children learn faster and we should teach them about kindness, sharing, love, respect and understanding. Children are like copy-cats, they copy what they see around them so if parents and teachers show all these around the children both at home and in schools, they'll learn it. Also people outside should do the same and the children will learn from there.
We also need systems that are fair to everyone, some people become violent when they are mistreated. If the government treats everyone equally, it'll help reduce fights. Not treating the rich as special people or making them above the law while the poor is been treated like he doesn't matter. This is really wrong and can cause a lot of hate and fighting.
A lot of people lack communication and this is very important. Countries must learn to communicate instead of going to war. Neighbors and families should settle issues with words and not fists. I'm one of those people who prefer to talk things through than exchange fists or use abusive words.
Peace doesn't mean that everything should or must be perfect it means we choose to live without harming or hurting one another. It means we work together, support each other and try to understand each other.
So yes, I believe peace is possible. Not perfect peace, but real enough to change lives. It starts with you and me.*

STOPThis was really hard, and it's so true. Most people doesn't even like themselves and they use all that internal pain to hurt the people around them.
Yep, totally agree. And I think that people who are dominated by their ego, greed, and who do not have good emotional regulation, should not be presidents.
You're right and hurting others because you're hurt is wrong.
They shouldn't be oo, so we won't be affected by the decision they make.
