The First Ripple

“The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing.” - Walt Disney

“Let us not be content to wait and see what will happen, but give us the determination to make the right things happen.” – Peter Marshall

I’ve been talking to a few friends about this website that I’ve been wanting to set up to promote world peace. They’ve been excited when I described my dream to them, and encouraged me to follow through on it, but its been weeks and still nothing. Today I told someone new about it, and got into a conversation about what’s been holding me back.

“I feel like a fraud,” I confessed, “wanting to talk about peace when there’s been so much trouble in my own life lately.” So then we talked about integrity, how we work on peace by working on ourselves, and how peace begins with each of us. No one person can do alone, we all have our part to play. The pieces started to fall into place, and I resolved to go home and get to work.

Peace is my goal, for myself and anyone else who wants it. I’m not an expert and I don’t have all the answers. This is my journey, though, and I invite you to join me.

The pebble has been dropped in the pond. The first ripple has gone out. How far will it go? Stay with me and we'll find out together.
