When we watch the evening news or read our favorite blogs about current events, especially events that occur sometimes on the exact opposite side of the world, it is understandable that we would feel detached and distanced from those events. An irony of a world that allows us to know with great detail what is happening so far away is that we can become desensitized to those events. Not only does the two-dimensional nature of our computer screens contribute to that phenomenon, but so does the sheer amount of data that bludgeons us.
The PEACE AND LIFE® pendant can help you remember that these things that we see on our televisions and on our computer screens are happening to real human beings. Because, after all, working toward peace and respecting life begins with you.
Only you can make the decision to represent a more peaceful way of living and only you can exhibit the qualities that indicate a true and abiding and congruent respect for life. For all we profess about our faith in a higher power, it is necessary to at least strive for congruence with our beliefs. The PEACE AND LIFE® pendant is an optimistic reminder that peace has never been more important to humankind and respect for the beauty and sanctity of life is vital to our survival.
Gentle Reminder of Our Responsibilities To Our World
The PEACE AND LIFE® symbol, worn as a necklace, will be an elegant and simple reminder of our responsibilities as they relate to representing the essential importance of our beliefs about peace and life. To remind others of their responsibilities may on occasion come across as presumptuous, perhaps even judgmental. But circumstances at this time in our human history requires that we look past those social conventions that would otherwise have us believe that politeness is more important than making real and positive change. When violence reaches a tipping point and becomes normalized in our world, protecting others from the necessity of taking responsibility for the sake of not offending them based on an ill-advised right to be separate from ameliorative processes cannot stand. We must show our love for each other by imploring other people to get in touch with their responsibility to be forces for good in the world.
If life is truly precious, and if we truly understand the necessity of peace in ensuring that we all have the best chance of thriving and flourishing, we must act positively in the pursuit of peace and life. Peace and Life begins with you.
