“Be the change you wish to see in
the world!” is the way Mahatma Gandhi put it. “Darkness
cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive
out hate; only love can do that.” is the way Martin Luther
King, Jr. put it. If we want to help bring peace and love and
harmony into our broken and hurting world then it makes sense that we
begin by bringing it into our own lives. When we come from a place of
peace within ourselves, rooted and grounded in a deep and abiding
awareness of God’s peace, then our actions in the world are much
more likely to contribute to peace in the world around us. It is not
always easy to find that peaceful center, and even more challenging
to stay there. And it is a spiritual practice that is well worth the
effort – one step, one breath, one peaceful intention at a time.
