Good question. Peace starts with oneself. Create inner peace. The more you do, the more you can spread peace and love. When people learn to relate to each other from peace and love with patience, then the community will be at peace too.

Face it; peace was never meant to be a long-lasting element. No matter how hard we try to achieve peace, there will always be some group of people that chooses to go against another group of people for the most trivial reasons, whether because of religious disputes or because they just don't like them (Israel and Hezbollah, we're looking at you). Peace may never be achieved in the Middle East, but that's not what President Shrub...I mean Bush...tends to believe. He thinks that we can just waltz into the midst of a dispute that's been continuing for hundreds of years and all of a sudden make them get along and make them be nice to each other. What a pile of you-know-what; all Bush did was cause another Vietnam; Vietnam was probably one of the most stupid things the U.S. ever did, and the Iraq/Middle East war is slowly rising through the ranks to this position. Maybe U.S. is really arrogant enough to believe we can solve any foreign country's problems. Overall, peace can almost never be achieved, and if it is, don't get your hopes up, because it probably won't last that long.

Well we'd hope for world peace in exactly the same way if we could achieve peace here. It's just a little less realistic.

Good point. Peace in your mind. Peace with you. Each cell in the body of humanity must do this to achieve world peace.

Wise words for such a terrible day. Too bad they aren't thought about and utilized at the critical moments in our lives. Too many are "a shot in the dark minded with inner turmoil which stems from hate." If only it could be true but it's not in my world. I'm so hurt and so sad and there's no turning back anymore. One can only take so much hate from another. Eventually the emotional destruction becomes the core of their soul and no amount of false feelings or game playing will take back what was rendered in the stab to the heart that always loved..........

The good thing about the light of hope is that you can have it during the darkest times. This hope helps guide us onto the path of peace. Be hopeful, we'll make it. Think about it. If you didn't hope for peace, you wouldn't try to achieve it.

World Peace is impossible. There are too many people reaching out for dominance. Unless perfection is gained by man a utopia is not going to come.

Great quote.
Gandhi also said, "I believe in God, not as a theory but as a fact more real than life itself."
Gandhi was a great teacher of peace, faith, and admiration of all the great world religions.
(o.k...I can't help myself: another great Gandhi quote:
Religions are different roads converging upon the same point. What does it matter that we take different roads so long as we reach the same goal?")

Ghandi had it right...only when we can find peace within self, will we find peace in the world.
