What is the first thought you get when you think about peace?
Is it tranquility? Maybe joy and happiness or is it love?




I believe that peace is a decision. when I see the faces and smiles of this week’s Peace Givers, I know that sharing peace requires courage. Even something as sharing a selfie takes first an intention, execution, and delivery. Sharing peace is meaningful and sometimes it requires time, presence.
Thank you
, , for sharing your wishes for peace, your smiles, and that deep sense of love you know to trasmit so well.Peace begins with self and spreads externally. Peace is what the world is in need of and through strength and prayer, we can overcome any obstacle.
Peace isn’t just a global goal—it’s a personal miracle. It’s when your group chat goes quiet, when no one needs anything from you for five whole minutes. When your coffee’s still hot and your brain isn't running 17 tabs at once. It’s not dramatic or loud. It’s the soft moment you realize: “Right now, I’m okay.”
Peace is the absence of the need for peace. It is our natural-born state, but as long as we seek peace, whether personally or in global affairs, peace will elude us, for peace and chaos are two sides of the same coin. Alas, we try. And rightfully so.
To me, peace is the gentle sound of birds singing, the warmth of the sun on my skin, and the quiet calm that settles over my mind.
