first I'd like to than rose for the beautiful logo.

the idea for this group sprung to my mind after I receive a message from Mohamad sh.

he wrote:

Dear everyone,

As you all see my list, i have a 120 friends, part of them palestinian, others from israel and also some from other arab countries and others like USA , EU, and more, i would like to ask a sensitive question to my friends from israel, and also other are welcome to answer it: everyone of us here talking peace, and about peace, and sounds for me life on this is is so great and lovely, seems no hatred and racism, no occupation and war, from big part of the comments i read mostly we say: we want peace, and here is my question: WHEN WE SAY PEACE, WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY THIS NICE WORD, WHAT KIND OF PEACE WE WANT, WHERE COULD BE OUR LIMITES, BORDERS AND WHAT CAN WE GIVE TO MAKE PEACE REAL, LOTS OF QUESTIONS THAT FOR SURE NEED A DEEP THINKING TO SATISFY OUR NEEDS.
THANKS

So I answered:

That a really good question. I thank you for it, Mohamad. Peace means a great deal of different things to many people. It is a very personal question. I can tell you about the first things that come to my mind when I close my eyes and think of peace. I see no more wars. I see a time when my grandchildren don't have to spend 3 years of their lives in the army. I see equality and respect between peoples and nations. I see my Arab friends come to visit me at home, I see us going to the beach together. I see myself hanging out with my Lebanese friends in Beirut. But most of all, I see myself being able to get in the car with my dad (who is 87 years old) and 2 sons, and drive to Baghdad, Iraq, through Jordan or Syria. In Baghdad he takes us to the house he was born in, and to all the places he told us so many stories about. There, we close a circle.
These dreams might sound trivial to many, but these simple acts have been denied of so many people in the Middle East.

What would I give for REAL peace? Almost everything.

Then I thought, why limit it to Mohamad's friends. It's an important question. Why not open it up for everybody in iPeace?

Last summer I attended a lecture by Arun Gandhi (grandson of Mahatma Gandhi) & Mairead Corrigan Maguire (Nobel Peace Prize winner) in the Scottish Parliament, here in the historic & beautiful city of Edinburgh.

Mairead spoke of nurturing & cultivating love & peace within yourself, and then sharing it. Arun quoted his Grandfather who spoke of the seed of peace. If this seed is kept in a box it will wither & die. However, if the seed is exposed to the elements it will grow & flourish!

The message is clear, share your peace & let it grow & flourish.

And, with this in mind, please embrace the philosophy behind this movement and share your passion for peace by reaching out and inviting your friends.

Comment by Clicia Pavan on March 12, 2011 at 3:39pm: New research shows that fish are conscious and can feel pain
The Earth is a living planet and suffer all that the man is doing.
But nature is sovereign and has its defenses.
But man can defend himself
Gaia's revolt?
Floods, droughts, global warming, food shortages and water
Let us join hands
And make a
Grand Alliance ...
Love the Planet
Gaia our mother earth love

Una nueva investigación muestra que los peces son conscientes y pueden sentir dolor
La Tierra es un planeta vivo y sufrir todo lo que el hombre está haciendo.
Pero la naturaleza es soberano y tiene sus defensas.
Pero el hombre puede defenderse
revuelta de Gaia?
Las inundaciones, las sequías, el calentamiento global, la escasez de alimentos y agua
Unamos nuestras manos
Y hacer una
Gran Alianza ...
Amor al Planeta
Gaia, nuestra madre tierra el amor

Comment by Mario Ragagnin on March 10, 2011 at 8:28pm: Non sono le idee ad opporsi, ma le nostre autoaffermazioni di forza - www.marioragagnin.net

Le posizioni opposte convergeranno nell’espansione comune, loro vero scopo.

Le posizioni oggi antagoniste, dei teisti e degli atei, convergeranno ad unità sulle realizzazioni conseguenti e coerenti ad entrambe le posizioni.

I teisti, sostenenti che Dio esiste già, saranno indotti a trarre come conseguenza l'attuazione in Terra delle idealità divine.

Partiranno dall'idea di Dio per dedurre i valori (libertà, giustizia, diritto, bene ecc.) da realizzare praticamente, eseguendo quanto Dio vuole si faccia.

E inversamente ma analogamente, gli atei partiranno dai medesimi valori, da realizzare per arrivare a fare essere di fatto Dio (secondo il nostro punto di vista attuale relativo), nella costruzione unitaria dell'umanità.

Il nuovo organismo, con sé stesso, rappresenterà la soluzione e, alla fine, l'Assoluto: il soggetto conoscente e l'oggetto conosciuto coincideranno.

Le posizioni opposte convergeranno e si incontreranno, riconoscendosi già in partenza aspetti parziali della stessa e unica realtà.

Comment by Clicia Pavan on February 21, 2011 at 2:55am: I open my eyes every morning
look around... feel the peace inside my heart
hear the music coming from the silence
see the delicate light shining from far far away
is the light of hope...is the light of my star
Let go of your grudges and grievances
because alchemy that makes you feel so good
You feel free to breathe, to appreciate nature
around them, to see the goodness of people
You are permeated by a new energy that
makes you feel better and better as your heart opens
Let the light of your star shine in your heart
Much light, love and peace
Clicia Pavan

Abro los ojos cada mañana
Miro a mi alrededor ... sentir la paz dentro de mi corazón
escuchar la música que viene del silencio
ver la luz delicada que brilla desde lejos, muy lejos
es la luz de la esperanza ... es la luz de mi estrella
Salga de su rencor y quejas
debido a la alquimia que te hace sentir tan bien
Se siente libre para respirar, para apreciar la naturaleza
a su alrededor, para ver la bondad de la gente
Usted está impregnado de una nueva energía que
te hace sentir mejor y mejor que su corazón se abre
Que la luz de su brillo de estrellas en el corazón
Mucha luz, amor y paz
