What is PEACE?






According to Wikipedia, PEACE is a period of harmony between different social groups that is characterized by lack of violence or conflict behaviors, and the freedom from fear of violence. Shortly, peace is a state where there is no conflict or disturbance.

I'm sure that every country wants peace. Everyone wants peace. Imagine yourself living without problems and all. It must be a really good life. But ego, hate, etc. prevents us to feel what peace is. There will always be some people who think that they're better than others. That they're deserve better than others. That they need to be specialized. Peace is actually not impossible to be reached. But it's hard.

There's actually so many opinions about peace. Some of opinions are based on religion. Buddhism, Christianity, Islam, etc all have their own opinions, but in fact essentially the same. I will take so example.



Al-Qur'an 48 :4

The quotes above is taken from Islam's holy book, Al-Qur'an. From that quotes, we can conclude that peace is given by God. And
we can also conclude that everyone is born with 'peace'. So we actually can have peace if we want to because we have it in ourselves.

Statements about peace is not only expressed by each religions, but also people. Some famous people we probably knew also said their opinions aloud. One of them is Albert Einstein.



What I got from the quotes above is that we can not force peace. There is no peace by force. We have to understand each other, to trust each other to find peace. Like, can you have peace with someone if you don't understand him/her at all? No. All you'd got is only bickering and conflict and etc. Not peace. So if you want to achieve peace, you have to understand. Understand you surrounding.


So that was our little chit chat about peace. Its okay if you have different way of thinking. That makes you you :) We just need to understand each other to get a sense of peace among us ((Aawww isn't it cheesy?))

Okay guys that's all. I'm actually in the mood for writing but I don't know what to write :(
But that's okay. I'll see you next time!
