For me, peace always starts with the individual. The pathway of love is the 1st pathway to peace, starting with self-love. If we can align our body, heart, mind, and soul to love, we can walk, talk, and act in love and peace. When we love ourselves, then we can ‘love our neighbor as ourselves.’ We can only love the other in equal measure to one’s own self-love.

DAILY PEACE ACTION
Ideally, meditate every morning. Short of that, take a few quiet moments and ask with curiosity and compassion: what part of me needs to be loved? For if there is any part of us that we don’t love, then that part can be turned against the other.
Smile at others you see, imagine literally walking in their shoes, and remember we are all made in God’s image, the One image of God. This is a pathway to love and peace.
