Before Peace

Peace is not a decision; it's a goal. You don't decide to have peace, you decide that you want to have peace, and than you work towards it. The work is the change needed before peace.

Now peace is obtained,
one step at a time.
Starting individually,
with a peaceful state of mind.
And peace on earth,
will just have to wait.
Until every individual,
is in their peaceful state.

When this is complete,
and everyone's mind is at rest,
then we turn to global peace,
which is next on the list.
First the fightings must stop,
then the wars must cease.
And we have to trust one another,
before we can achieve peace.

Next we have to realize,
that the earth is not a toy.
And more importantly,
that it's not ours to destroy.
For the earth is not our property,
it;s not something we own.
No it belongs to our children,
and we have it on loan.

So we can;t go burning the forest,
or do whatever we wish.
We can't pollute the waters,
cause we're killing the fish.
Life has to be respected,
then the killings will end.
Lastly we must believe in love,
before peace can begin.

World peace demands not only a peace, but also a world.
One is not much good without the other.
