On this day of your life

I believe God wants you to know ...

... that peace is not merely a distant goal that we seek,

but a means by which we arrive at that goal.

Martin Luther King Jr. said that, and he was right. And

his wisdom holds true not only for peace in our world,

but for peace within ourselves.

All of our spiritual traditions teach the same thing. To

achieve peace, be peace. Yet how does one be what

one is wishing to experience? By a sheer act of Will.

And...by causing others to experience what you wish

to experience.
