A common space for harmonic peacemakers

14,000,000,000 years.

my friend put up this post on facebook and i thought it a good one to post here..

'been thinking that it is so easy to lose faith in the midst of all these truly terrifying and horrific events happening around the world. But its only through an extraordinary act of cosmic chance, so unfathomably unlikely its impossible to articulate, over the course of more than 14000000000 years, that we have even this opportunity to be alive, here, today. It is my belief that the wars and conflict we are seeing around us are expressions of the conflict that we face inside. To overcome these obstacles, as life has been doing for longer than i can imagine, we need a profound amount of love, understanding and patience. Everyday is another chance to make that happen. Many battles have been lost but the war goes on and I have an unshakable confidence that happiness is the true nature of human beings and that love , in the end is always stronger than hate...'
