One Day of Peace

One day of Peace
    Let me tell you this here and now. I am totally in love with TED talks. The most inspiring, creative, and heart felt people talk on here and give speeches and birth to all kinds of ideas. "Ideas worth spreading" is their motto, and this motto is certainly correct.
    Jeremy Gilley talks in this TED talk about One Day of Peace. Crazy Idea right? The whole world you say?

    Yes it's a pretty out there idea but Jeremy has went all over the world trying to persuade the people and governments to instate a peace day, which would be September 21. To the Dalai Lama and the corners of Afghanistan, Jeremy has been putting forth his idea of achieving one day of global peace. Yes others have their own agenda of war and power, but one day of peace is not asking for much. To create the first ceasefire non-violence day is amazing and a powerful statement for everyone.
     I found this incredibly inspiring and just had to blog about it. Even this tiny blog in the realm of the internet can help right?


Peace be with you
