Best regards, James Sorrell Citizen Peace Starts With The Mirror Written by Darrin F. Coe, MA Continued from page 1 4. Establishing a system of faith. 5. Letting go of things like revenge and personal offense. 6. Letting go of tradition if it is unproductive. 7. Renewing your mind, body, and spirit on a daily basis. 8. Developing humility. 9. Developing a perspective of world around you that is not based in stereotypes. 10. A study of, and incorporation of positive virtues 11. Pursuing a full life no matter your current circumstances. Once you begin developing peace within yourself, that peace will spread outward to world around you. First, your friends, and family, then your community, then your enemies, and outward to world. This is true path of global peace; one person at a time finding peace within themselves. It is my belief that those who are most violent possess greatest capacity for peace and non-violence. It all starts by accepting challenge of examining yourself everyday and choosing peace over violence. I encourage you to look in mirror of your life and begin to put aside violence. Develop a new perspective towards friends, family, enemies, challengers, and world at large. Darrin F.
