Imagine a world where each and every one of us is a peacemaker. What if, instead of going to war and fighting to be ‘right’ we made a different choice? What if we all chose to become the peacemakers? We don’t have to simply imagine a world of peacemakers. We can start right now with our willingness to forgive.
“The willingness to forgive is a sign of spiritual and emotional maturity. It is one of the great virtues to which we all should aspire. Imagine a world filled with individuals willing both to apologize and to accept an apology. Is there any problem that could not be solved among people who possessed the humility and largeness of spirit and soul to do either — or both — when needed?”
Gordon B. Hinckley
The choice is yours and yours alone…
Choosing to be a peacemaker is a conscious choice. It’s not the easy choice and it takes courage. Look at the those who chose to speak up for peace. People like Martin Luther King, Jr., Desmond Tutu, Mahatma Gandhi, Fannie Lou Hamer to name a few. Our peacemakers did not live easy lives but they chose peace.
Choosing to be a peacemaker comes from the heart. It makes us vulnerable yet at the same time, it opens a space to love more. As peacemakers, we are choosing to forgive. As a peacemaker we are in a space of forgiveness which, in fact, is the only thing that frees us from karma.
Blessed are the peacemakers
Choosing to be a peacemaker allows us to move forward without having to carry the burden of righteousness or victimhood. Each day we must make the choice to forgive others, forgive ourselves and in doing so, we free our very souls.
To all my peacemakers, it’s time. Time to end the internal and external wars we’ve been fighting. It’s time to begin again, love and by all means give peace a chance. ~Shine Your Light Debbie
