Peace starts from within.

I realize that in order to have peace and understanding all around, I must start with myself. I must be contented with what I have and be grateful with every blessing or grace I receive. Before I look at the triumphs and failures of others, I must learn from my own accomplishments and mistakes. My victories, I should see as an opportunity to share; my failures, a chance to improve and be better. May it change me for the better and make me an example and instrument of peace. Do you think it will make a difference? Merry Christmas!

What knowledge we acquire through hearing and reading is limited when compared to what we can learn from personal experiences, deep meditation, and contemplation. Then peace and understanding will endure. Merry Christmas - siva
