Peace at a price

Why we need
to know voilence,
to be rattled;
before we seek
the calmness ?

  2. It would seem that we never learned the lesson of Cain and Abel. Fear, greed, and envy breed violence, while peace takes time, hard work, and constant attention. Good questions you have asked,

  4. Good question. Resorting to violence comes naturally. Seeking calm takes wisdom.

  5. One must go down before going up...
    So it is said. But so much time in the darkness makes it harder to see the light.
    I can only hope that we can help to lift each other 'up.'

    Thank you. I was a bit late this week...but finally remembered...I'm here:
