Today, September 21st, is the International Day of Peace. While it may not be the most well-known holiday, we believe it’s one of the most important. Sometimes it feels like the world gets more divided, hateful, and violent each year. Or maybe it only feels that way due to social media and news outlets sharing bad news from around the world 24/7. Either way, everyone has different ideas about how to make the world a better place - things that there need to be more of, or less of. But one thing everyone should be able to agree on is that more peace would benefit everyone, and definitely make the world a better place.
The theme for this years day of peace is ‘Act Now for a Peaceful World’, which is a good reminder that peace doesn’t just happen by chance. It requires intentional effort, from each of us. History has shown us time and again that great things can still be accomplished without violence or force. Violence will never end violence, hate will never erase hate. So let’s choose peace instead. Give peace a chance! ☮️
