Peace is not being just not violent, not at war.

Peace is having unconditional LOVE for yourself and all that is, both known and unknown.

Peace is the place of sublime bliss, comfort and empathy you find and share at the center of the stillness and the silence.

Peace is not fearing, but falling in LOVE with the infinite mystery…

just LOVE…
Kip Baldwin

“The essence of nonviolence is love. Out of love and the willingness to act selflessly, strategies, tactics, and techniques for a nonviolent struggle arise naturally. Nonviolence is not a dogma; it is a process.” ~ Thich Nhat Hanh

Can one have love? If we could, love would need to be a thing, a substance that one can have, own, possess. The truth is, there is no such thing as love.Love is an abstraction, perhaps a goddess or an alien being, although nobody has ever seen this goddess. In reality, there exists only the act of loving. To love is a productive activity. It implies caring for, knowing, responding, affirming, enjoying: the person, the tree, the painting, the idea. It means bringing to life, increasing his/her/its aliveness. It is a process, self-renewing and self increasing. from To Have or to Be?
~ Erich Fromm
