What is the most precious thing to you?

Suppose you have to leave your home and there's 1 minute left,

You can take just only 1 item.

What will you take?

Even though there's plenty of time left, you might not be able to choose one from.

May, Syrian refugee in Iraq, had brought her bracelet.

But she told the bracelet is not the first, she had wanted to have her doll Nancy back, left on her bed on the night of evacuation.

Mimi Fowler, an English girl who live in Thailand, saw a story from UNHCR web site.

And she thought of Mimi, and she broken her piggy bank and bought a new doll not used one.

And the Doll was sent from Thailand.

Finally got to Mimi at the camp of Syrian refugee in Iraq.

Refugees from their ordinary life, they might not know how precious the thing and the people they love.

But now, they lose all of that at once, and miss it all.

Strange to say, we all can be refugee.

We have to keep peace in that thought.

And we all can be a peace advocate in our direct life.

Just like Mimi, only 5 years old girl, sent a doll of peace and love by breaking her piggy bank.

How can we make Inner peace?

I haven't been able to work at all the last couple of days.

The beginning was getting a fishbone stuck in my throat.

I treat that with folk remedy to swallow food. But that didn't work.

My throat is swollen.

I thought of this quote in this picture.

First keep the peace within yourself, then you can also bring peace to others, said by Thomas a Kempis.

I think peace is not related body situation. 

Because, peace advocate achieve regardless of their condition.

It is more mental power and belief than feeling that peace is good.

And the belief and willpower is from confidence having the material or matters to execute of accomplishing peace.

Actually, I came out this thought arised from thinking a peace advocate, Man Hee Lee.

He's in his mid 80's. And I saw articles that the schedule of his peace movement was so tight to carry out.

But he made the peace agreement in Mindanao.

Maybe there would be a chance to interview him, I want to ask what makes you so aggressively.

I want to be like him.

Mindanao Peace Agreement on Ptv.

Ptv is a nation-run broadcasting station.

Peace agreement and peace activities in Mindanao was on the air on 13th Feb.
Here's the video clip on You-tube.





To achieve world peace, the peace advocate Man Hee LEE and NAm Hee Kim
visited the Philippines.
And the peace walk held in General Santos.
Many youths and religious leaders attended the peace walk.
Also, they held a peace forum and discussed how to achieve peace in Mindanao.

At this peace forum, there was a historical ceremony for signing the peace agreement.
Through this, peace will be achieved in religion.
IT seems that through these wonderful events, efforts for ending war and world peace have become stronger worldwide.

Mahatma, great soul, Gandhi.

Strikes, non-cooperation, mass civil disobedience, and spending lots of time in prison.

Perhaps these bring to mind a ganster's personal history to you.
It is Mahatma Gandhi's, called as Great Soul.
Then, What do you think of Gandhi's achievement?
The answer probably be the power of nonviolence.

His nonviolent action was not passive. As cited above, he led a social movement on a large scale.
And his strategy on nonviolent action to British scratched British's moral authority by letting British use violence to unarmed Indian.
For that reason, nonviolence actions must be measured, and the demonstrators are willing to die for their belief.
It is from the creed that a moral principle is the strongest power than any other things.

Gandhi said
"A small body of determined spirits fired by an unquenchable faith in their mission can alter the course of human history."

Not long ago, a peace advocate Man hee Lee, made a peace agreement between Catholic and Islamic groups in Mindanao.
He asked a question to nature in human.
As a believer, will God like the situation of conflict with religion?
His speech pulled down basis of all the reason that they said which had to fight each other.
So, after that, they do not fight for their religious reason any more.
If they fight, it left a blemish in human history.
He ended that 40 years war by delivering a speech, nonviolent action.
But just remember, it's not easy speech in front of the conflictive crowd.

Nonviolence can change world to peace.
