Teaching Peace
MarkMan
Changing the world requires living the words one preaches. If you are a Strong example of peace then people will notice you envy you and want those qualities in themselves. We must be approachable as teachers of commonsense, and caring.
To change the world you need to be out in the world, even if it's your local world. To be alone in peace doesn't spread the feeling of peace. People need to feel our peace and understanding, and not be lectured. If we project love and caring, love and caring will extend beyond ourselves. Zaadz is a way to extend our love and understanding to others though community and writing. Zaadz can be a large group of people most with an understanding peace, so that anyone wanting to go down the road of peace won't feel alone.

Hell yeah, I totally agree!
This reminds me of the lesson of this experiment, where a group of meditators were placed in Washington, DC (made famous by the What the Bleep movie).
They meditated for a few hours twice a day, but that’s not the important part! They went around and Lived in the city, Interacted with the people. This is the effect that spread through to end up potentially causing lower crime rates.
It’s great to find peace, but I think you’re dead on: it’s important to bring that peace into the world. Thanks for sharing!
