Delusional Actions

In an endless search for peace, we look in all the same places we as mankind have always looked, places based upon force.

In never occurs to most people that ultimately peace can only be achieved by peaceful means. Force only begets more force as mankind's history informs us.

Throughout history we have been the unfortunate victims of our own creation, an endless arms race as we delude ourselves to think these action could lead us to anywhere but where they have.

If we instead would only seek our oneness with all of mankind, approaching people with love, respect and compassion and offering a helping hand, we would finally find the peace that has eluded us for thousands of years.

There is a peaceful role you and I can play. Even if we live in a nation that depends upon force to exercise its will, you and I can treat others with love, respect and compassion and offer them a helping hand.

By doing so, we will be honoring the highest ideals of mankind and serving our spiritual selves as we seek the one true path to peace.
