With the aim of peace everywhere,
starting here and now, transforming violence and conflict of needs in life, one word, thought or deed at a time.
And because
it’s not the slog that will get us there, it’s the joy
for balance, things that warmed our hearts and made life a pleasure.
Starting where transformation is needed.
Examples from the group of peace lovers this week on Thursday 1st December
We have a first this time. Zero issues brought for transformation and a lot of things that were a delight, some of which are examples of people finding nonviolent ways to stand for and uphold what is important to them.
Pure joy all round then.
Cheers to that.

In a regular and ordinary kind of pub, expectations for the food were also kind of ordinary. It was not!
