Unlocking the Power of Peace
Copyright © Grant Lawrence (2004)

Peace will arrive when enough people in the world demand it. The way is not difficult to understand, it only requires a sensitivity to the suffering of others. This sensitivity is objectionable to the power structures of the world and people are conditioned to see it as a burden and a hindrance to goals, objectives, policy statements, and stated national and international interests. But, it is this sensitivity that is the greatest gift because it can unlock the power of peace. When enough people can no longer tolerate the brutalization and the dehumanization of their brothers and sisters around the world, then they will have discovered a way to free themselves.
