If we dont create peace around us.

If we don't start with our selves, and the nearby community we live in, how are we ever going to create a peaceful world to live in?

If a human have not peace from within with him/her/them selves, how are they thinking peace can rise?

Peace is not wanted by many. How would the GOP fill the hole in funding if there were no arms firms?

Hopefully with peace to all people in the different countries.
We do not need war and destruction. Only power hungry people think they need it to control the peaceful people

I'm not sure I agree. Plenty of statesmen have enabled peace through working to diminish sources of conflict. Some of them have been quite prickly and driven individuals, not really at peace at a personal level.

Trying to force peace just makes you lose yours and pushes others further away from it.

They have to let you teach them peace, but most people are too afraid to let their guard down for that.

You have to understand that most people have experienced a lot of pain in their lives. Life hurts, and there are always new threats around the corner to scare us.

I think the solution is to do what you can to help them not feel so afraid and hurt, but you can't reach everyone. Some people need help that we don't have the capacity to provide, or are so hurt that they won't accept the help they need.

I truly think that humans were wired by evolution to seek out peace, so I think you should be more understanding with people that you might think aren't committed enough to finding it or aren't making the progress you think they should. There are probably real problems in their lives that are proving to be powerful obstacles for them, and they aren't always easily dismissed.

I get what you saying :) but I can only change my own being to be at peace. Trying to change others do not work.
But live as a good example of one who found peace, that I think is possible:)

We cannot control the world, or it's people. We can only learn to control ourselves, and hope that will light the way for those who are looking.

Well, as it is often said, if you want peace, work for justice. No justice, no peace. Humanity has always found it to be so.

Be your own guru
It may be a dream scenario, but if we don't try it will just be the same old war.
You are welcome. Try it. My best wishes to you. But I fear it will only bring disappointment to you. The result of your action is not in your hand. That is what BhagawatGita says. You cannot control the thousands of variables involved in the process.

It can't. Survival is hardwired. Nature dosent allow peace.

At the same time however, there is no barrier to creating your own peace!

That is true, but I can control what I do say and think toward others

I think peace and love go hand in hand. I believe that peace and patience often also goes hand and hand. I believe a person can be a peaceful person towards others and also deal with inner anxieties.
