Today is 21 September and that can mean only one thing: It’s the UN’s International Day of Peace.
The very thought of this day’s intentions calms my breathing. My mind quiets and I am still. I imagine all of us going about the business of living. I see us facing trials and tribulations, to be sure, but I also see us dealing with our challenges in a mature, congenial fashion. When I lose myself in this sort of thinking, it’s quite lovely. Even more beautiful are the feelings that accompany those idealistic visions.
If only the world could feel the same.
