freedom

Here is the thing, as probably most of us are, I am afraid of war. Images of misery, injustice, suffering and hatred are poured all over the world on a daily basis. Most of us are familiar with many war related terms and issues. For me these are images and stories. For others it is a daily reality. The world knows war. The world knows it well. Yesterday it hit me. What does peace look like? Is it merely the absence of conflict? If so, do I live in peace? Or is my peace merely sustaining someone else's war?

What is peace?
