Achieve Peace

As I close my eyes and drift away to a land where there is love, health, peace, and blessings. I wanted to take the time to think and reflect.

     Is the Master's work ever done? Somehow I don't think so. While we have acquired the tools of the Master, what are the tools of knowledge for? Formal job, career development or not, the tools that are available through the acquisition of knowledge, are never wasted. As a mother, or a human being who has acquired rights, or has experienced  denied rights, the tools become useful for the protection of one's own rights, for the self, and others who we have interacted with, whenever we see that there is something that we need to speak about. In a sense the tools help us to develop as human beings, or the leaders if we so wish to choose. 

     This is the difference between a boss, and a leader. A boss can give directions, be a provider of checks and balances, the overseer, or an enabler, but it is the leader that drives the vision. The steerer of the vision, steering, but leading to ask others to get on board with the vision. Vision implementation, steering direction, being the driver for social innovation, continuous improvement, or change takes both capital investment, and human investment. Both are needed to build human bridges. It takes more time, energy, and investments to build human bridges, than any physical structure. Just as a boss who is the overseer, the guardian, or protector of the vision, the vision should also serve as a check point. A meeting point where we strive to repair hearts, healing the brokenness from past hurts. Mending for the sake of a nations peace, and for the sake of world peace.  

     We have to find new ways of how we view race. Is one superior to the other? We have to find new ways of how we view religion. Is one superior to the other? We have to find new ways of how we view these, so that as leaders we are reminding each other that we are pulling each other up - to reach points of equilibrium, where we can build for understanding. This can also be thought of as points for peace. Peace is non-existence if it is not maintained, strived for, or fought for. Sometimes it does take complete breakdowns to re-build for peace, and sometimes it is working with what we have. Peace or points of peace don't mean that we have to agree on everything, but it does mean that we find common elements that can be agreed upon, to look towards this vision of peace. 

     What if we were to view peace differently? What if we were to change the language that we use to talk about peace? What if instead of fighting for peace, we thought about loving each other, at the level of human to human? Selflessly loving for the sake of peace? To hope for world peace where all races, or minority groups are viewed equally. It  might not always mean that you don't get what you want, or there are no sacrifices involved. These should also be viewed differently. What if we thought about setbacks as part of the process? 

    This is what thought, ideas, or visions are all about, but the core starting point of a vision, is being able to see how, and what another sees, something that is not yet physically seen, but is imagined. Peace for a nation, peace for nations, and peace at the global level. The collective process can only start when we begin to see, understand, realize, or imagine what peace can achieve.
