If peace is dependent on arms and legs and houses and cars, then there is no possibility of peace.* Peace has no conditions. - Byron Katie, speaking about the beliefs that some of us can sometimes have about needing more money.*Blogger's Note: This can also be applied to our perceived needs for more oil, power, land, love, etc., etc.
Peace and greed can never exist together!
ReplyDeleteYou're right, Nick. That leaves us as a nation in a hurtin' position. (Fortunately, as individuals, we have the ability to choose peace over greed.)
ReplyDeleteKatie's inclusion of "arms and legs" in the equation reminded me of our blogging friend Meg. She has lost body parts to cancer, but in her healing journey has found peace.
