A high resource of our humanity, it unifies us across all religions and cultures, while including and respecting all our differences. The Artist in Everyone knows that the essence of every creative act is bringing together opposites and differences. With endless creativity this communicator in each of us can courageously make a creative act out of something as simple as a phone call or as big and heroic as facing our life challenges. My belief that the Artist in Everyone has the power to create a peaceful world first gave rise to my vision of the World Wall for Peace, with segments being created by communities in every nation.
Peace is creativity in action.
It is the dynamic quality of love and goodwill that is the basis of all life. It is in and through peace that our children can live the fullness of their potential. Too many children live a culture of violence'. Whether they are conscious of it or not, the violence that permeates our society freezes our children and young people in a state of fear, surrenders them to negativity, and stops the love in them from blossoming. Like Daniel in the Lions' Den, in the story from the Judeo-Christian bible, they can learn how to pass through the dark night unharmed.
