I have been pondering this through my lifetime. CISV has helped me crystallize some of my thought. In the garden of the world, Peace is the unusual shaped vegetable that needs much nurturance and patience to grow. It grows best when love and understanding fertilize its growing place in the human mind and heart. It is sweetest when shared with others.
Peace is the small village on the map that everybody has heard about, but few go to.
It seems so far away and exotic. In music, peace can best be described as the space between the notes. It is the pauses that give meaning to the cacophony. In art, Peace is the canvas that humans paint their version of the world on. For both music and art peace is a divine creation of precise craftsmanship.
