You can not change the world, but you can become the change you long to see in the world.
Jesus asks us to love our neighbor. Notice that there is no except for in his directive to us.
He intended for us to love everyone, all the time. If the world actually did this there would be peace. Many are starting to follow Jesus' advice about the value of love. Become one of these people.
Suspend judgment and simply try your best to apply the idea of love in a universal manner to all men. Love and blessings to you little one.

If WE could do it there would be no need of Jesus, His sacrifice, forgiveness or eternal life. That is why He did everything He did, in preparation for universal peace which He will accomplish.
Jesus did promise that things would get worse before His return. I guess He was correct. That makes Him a prophet as well as the savior.
A very wise minister from New York City once told me this story.
Once he caught a rat and put it in a box. He fed the rat and the rat was happy. Then he caught a second rat and put it in the box. He fed both rats and they were happy rats. He caught a third rat and put it in the box. Now the box was too small for all three rats and they fought over their food. There was no harmony. One of the rats had to die.
Sort of sounds like our world. There is no peace without Jesus.

Give every person what they want. That would make everyone happy for about two seconds. We all want more from life than we have at the moment. I'm not talking about greed, that is a power thing. We are never satisfied with ourselves, so we are driven to achieve bigger and better things for ourselves. We will never get rid of the competitive nature in us all. Some will win, and some will lose. Just remember that truly there are no rules.

You need to get out more. Danger from other people is wholly exaggerated, especially in the US. Yes, there are places more risky than others, but I would be far more concerned about car accidents than human predators.
World peace will accompany the extinction of the human race, we are way too territorial instinctively to coexist without conflict, especially when you throw overpopulation into the equation.
Start by not having kids. When you're older (30, maybe) Adopt one that wouldn't get a loving upbringing otherwise.

When we are all dead, every single last human, there still won't be peace on earth. Every thing has to eat, most animals have territorial prerogatives they must maintain, still things dying trying to make a living. No Peace.
It's a pipe dream,
You can't change anything beyond the reach of your arm, live as peacefully as you can, and let the world take care of the world, it's been taking care of itself a lot longer than we have been around.

First. In order to achieve world peace, people have to stop sitting in their @ss, stop talking and start doing. Stop complaing and start sharing more, helping more, recycling more.
Second. We have to start a pay it foward thing. Like in the movie. Help people in a way they can't help themselves and tell them to pay it foward.
Third. Believe we can do it. Believe is possible. Imagine it happening, and it will happen. Maybe not by the time you are 26, but maybe by the time you are 50 the world will be a better place. Good things take time in order to happen.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but since man has been on this planet, there have been wars. And I don't think that is going to change anytime soon. There has never been world peace. Ever. It could be that this world is not to know total peace. Every generation has known war at one time or another.

To achieve total world peace may be difficult, but we may try to reduce or eradicate the causes. My suggestions are that those who produce weapons, be it of mass dist ruction, or hand guns, daggers, bombs, etc, must stop producing them. Instead the money used to pay for this productions, be used to balance the differences between the poor people and the rich people. Educate the universe, abolished all inhuman practises.

It's a scary world out there, but whilst God is still around there is still hope and love. Jesus said things would get worse, and then the end will come when he returns. I get my peace from knowing god and pray you will find the same peace.

It is up to the people who govern the world to really usher in a time of peace. Not to be a kill joy I think being a bit of a cynic they make to much money from War and the spoils of war to ever really truly want peace ( The arms trade,oil and poppy Fields.) soz but that's what I think.

By educating young people thoroughly and coherently across the planet. Destroying capitalism, probably through the collapse of the super powers, and then educating every new generation about the benefits of communism.
Just an idea, like...
