Mothers-Let's Kick Some Peace Dust Today
Where Peace Lives wishes every mother around the world a happy Mother’s Day! We salute you for your unending love, compassion and promise of peace for our children. Peace is a choice, at every age. We can...no, we ARE making a difference.
We also salute Maria Shriver, first lady of our state of California- our ‘mother figure’! Maria...thank you for your endless commitment to improving our lives and the lives of our children.
We are humbled to share that Where Peace Lives ranked #4 on Amazon’s children’s best seller list last week, with only Harry Potter#1, Harry Potter #2 and Harry Potter#3 above us. We were also #2 in the nation on Barnes and Nobles best seller list, only second to Harry Potter. May our peace angel continue to fly with the wonderful wizards of J. K. Rowling’s phenomenal world.
Where Peace Lives poses a Mother’s Day challenge. Mothers of the world...(and father’s, we will be turning our attention/praise to you next month!) consider taking these three easy steps for peace:
#1: Read books to your children about the great peacemakers. Begin with Deepak Chopra’s new book, “Buddha: A Story of Enlightenment”. It’s incredible! Please consider Where Peace Lives too. Scholastic Publishing, one of the most important publishers of educational books for young people, has appropriate books for all age levels.
#2: Make ‘service’/volunteerism an ingrained part of your child’s life. When we serve others we find peace. It is also the greatest reference point for quickly building a young person’s self esteem.
#3: March into the principals office of your child’s school. Sit down and don’t get up until they agree to make Peace a class, at every grade level. Peace has to be right after English and just before history. Living in the most violent chapter of our human history, what is more important - how our children do on standardized test after standardized test or what kind of human beings they are and will become?
When we finally commit to study, learn and practice peace, our world will become a more peaceful place. Where Peace Lives is a call to action for children and adults alike to strengthen their peace muscle. TAKE THE WHERE PEACE LIVES JOURNEY TO CHANGE THE WORLD!
