What is Peacefulness?
Peacefulness is an inner sense of calm that come in moments of silent
gratitude or prayer. It is a way of becoming very quiet and looking at
things so you can understand them. It is facing your fears and then
letting them go. It is trusting that things will be all right.
Peacefulness is giving up the love of power for the power of love. It is
practicing justice, which means to be fair to yourself and others.
Peacefulness is a way of approaching conflict with others so no one is
made wrong. Everyone wins because you work to find a peaceful solution.
Peace comes when you give up violence, prejudice, and thinking of others
as enemies.
Peacefulness comes from an awareness that all human beings are part of
one human family. Peace in the world egins with peace in your heart and
peace in your interactions with others.
