"Peace is not merely a distant goal that we seek, but a means by which we arrive at that goal."
Profile Information
- Hometown:
- Tasmania, the island at the bottom of AUSTRALIA
- Relationship Status:
- Single
- My personal story:
- Like everyone, I have had some good times and some difficult times, a few disappointments, and a few successes.
- Why I want peace:
- The most important aspect of peace is: how do you get there?
Without peace, most people are unable to even start to live their lives, or worse still, their lives are destroyed, (not literally, just slowly through never being able to achieve anything meaningful).
- Interests and activities:
- Environmental sustainability, History of architecture, The religious ideals of all the great religions, Spiritual and ethical values.
- Something you didn't know about me:
- I have been busy changing my garden into a kind of miniature woodland with flowers and bushes. This is creating a peaceful, enchanting atmosphere, and, most importantly, getting rid of the grass that would otherwise have to be mowed.

TAO TE CHING
Verse 19
Abandon holiness
Discard cleverness
And the people will benefit a hundredfold
Abandon the rules of “kindness”
Discard “righteous” actions
And the people will return
To their own natural affections
Abandon book learning
Discard the rules of behaviour
And the people will have no worries
Abandon plots and schemes
Discard profit-seeking
And the people will not become thieves
(Translated by Jonathan Star, Penguin)

I agree Oliver. It is interesting that honest attempts at communication are often greeted in places like this with jeers and patronising and derogatory presumptions about the perceived other's "real" intentions.
Yes, Paul, communication is crucial indeed. "Simplistic slogans" won't help in the long term, that's clear. But honest and clear communication requires courageousness on all sides. Slogans are, in my view, often (as you also imply above) an 'indiv...
Neri is right in pointing to the "root causes of the action". What is defined as 'terror' has diverse such root causes - religion/religious fundamentalism being one of them. And yes, Ahmed, fundamentalisms exist in a plethora of religions - Christ...

Thank you for thinking of me on my birthday.
I had a good day. The weather was particularly nice (given the fact that there had been VERY hot weather in Massachusetts the past few days prior to my birthday-- unusual for typical New England weather at the end of April).
I went to a Nigerian restaurant with some friends (had goat meat for the first time I believe!), and then we went to see a movie about Mexicans that come to the US to labor, and all of the hardships that they have to go through.
(Latin America has become a really big interest to me as of late-- I am really interested in the culture, the people and the politics, and also how the actions of my government have affected the people there-- usaully for the worse).
How are things?
What have you been up to as of late?
Thanks again
Much love
Stephanie :)

evden eve ankara firması olarak With any luck, you won’t be hearing much from me, for about 6 months, maybe longer. Once I would have said, evden eve ankara kaliteden ödün vermeden evden eve yapıyoruz.
ankara evden eve szilerde kaliteyi ucuza lamak için bize başvurun.
This year I’m planning to become more familiar with political and historical issues in Israel and Palestine. evden eve evden eve nakliye firmaları.
1 year, and this war will be over. (That is the way I thought for about 40 years.) Now, I know better than to think that..!!!
We decided to choose an age at with we would like to die, rather than suffer. My cousin chose 71, which alarmed me, since she is already 65. I chose 75. A day or so later, I started to think, what is it I still want to see or do with my life ?? I decided I would like to see a satisfactory resolution to the Palestinian problem, in my life-time.
