Spreading Peace & Joy

Particularly at this time of year, it is customary to offer wishes for peace on Earth. But the wish is feeble if we do not share in the work it takes to bring about peace and, perhaps, a little joy. This is difficult when there is such divisiveness all around us; when words of violence and hatred are everywhere; when images of children from war-torn areas haunt our dreams.

It really takes such little effort to spread some joy. This year, let us strive to come together in our commonality, instead of being further divided by our differences. Many people the world over believe in the power of prayer, although our prayers are heard by One envisioned in a myriad of forms, and called upon by different names. Whatever your belief, may your wishes become prayers, and your prayers become acts of kindness at every opportunity. Peace on Earth is achievable only if it is spread among the people and to their leaders.
