"Peace is every step."

Peace is just like a good relationship with the world and everything and everyone in it. We have to begin with ourselves. How kind we are to ourselves, how patient we are with ourselves, will come through in how we are with other people, animals, our belongings, etc. So, I believe the first step toward a peaceful world must be to learn how to be at peace with ourselves. This is a daily challenge and must be done as a daily practice, for we are only humans and are imperfect. We require practice to move toward better habits in our relationship to ourselves and to others. I am not sure where the following quote comes from, but I believe it fits in here: "Being right about what is wrong, will never make a difference." We may be right about it, but we must practice, daily, doing something about it in our own personal lives, which is the only place we can truly make a difference.

Keep the Practice!
