A common space for harmonic peacemakers

troubled world

“Ultimately, we have just one moral duty: to reclaim large areas of peace in ourselves, more and more peace, and to reflect it toward others. And the more peace there is in us, the more peace there will also be in our troubled world.”
― Etty Hillesum

Comment by desmond dillon on January 16, 2022 at 1:26pm: a very special thank you Eva for posting this quote from the marvellous Etty Hillesum. It led me to catch up on her life and being.. Her understanding of the meaning of it all is just fabulous.. this is news today as it was 80years ago.. it has moved me to say the least.. The Flow of Presence is happening and more souls are becoming aware.. what a great time to be alive.

Comment by desmond dillon on January 15, 2022 at 12:12pm: the peace within us is life itself .. also known as light and also as love.. these words are shining facets of the same one power.. the contrasts are afforded by the 'troubled' bit of the world like the sun creates shadows.. we strive for no shadow and all sun because a human beings life must always have a more aware humane feeling within.. we strive in our life to be better.. to experience the essential innate humanity within in us.. its the beautiful feeling of love within evoked by the situations we find for ourselves..
