Maria Duval - Peace Like a Bar of Soap

Peace Like a Bar of Soap
"Here’s what I say: Until peace is as everyday an assumption as soap, we have to keep making the effort to remember it. Oh yeah, we’ll say, there’s always peace. As quotidian and assumptive as the presence of soap."

The Making of Peace
Peaceworker Muriel Lester wrote a truthful list of “actions to take to make peace” in which Dr. Susan Corso sees the talent of a person whose life mission is peace. What can you do in this moment to create peace in yourself, your home and the world?

The Light of Peace
Choose your evening. Include family and friends. Make the time for ritual. Ritual serves the purpose of stopping our always-going lives.

Peace Sheroes
This article highlights Dr. Susan Corso's admiration for author Donna Henes and peace activist Mildred Lisette Norman "Peace Pilgrim". Includes biography information and quotations by Mildred. The article ends with a beautiful poem by Ellen Bass.

Acts of Peace
Thoughts, dear one, specifically your thoughts are actions. Dedicate your thoughts to whatever you choose. I’ll do peace seven days a week. Just like I do tea seven days a week. Do the math: 50 x 7 = 350 thoughts per week x 52 weeks = 18,200 thoughts per year radiating from me alone, and that only during tea time!

Letting Go for Peace
Dr. Susan Corso comments on Elizabeth Gilbert’s “Instructions For Freedom” with her own “Instructions for Peace”.

Seeking to Sow Peace
Rev. Jesse Jennings, writing in Science of Mind magazine, says, “The world is seeking to sow peace, not just as the ending of open hostilities, but as a durable, perpetual field of play in which mutual respect and understanding are the norm.” I liked his idea particularly since it gives the world a soul. “The world itself is seeking to sow peace . . . .” Delicious.
