Are You A Peacemaker With An Intention Of Making Peace?
Making peace is something that most humans understand and practice to some degree. You’ve probably experienced discord in some kind of business or personal relationship where you became aware of a desire to return to a peaceful state.
Do you think that we humans are inherently peace-loving creatures? How is it that you have had your peacemaking activities? What have been your motivations? Have your peacemaking overtures ever been rejected?
The olive branch is the traditional sign of peace; and it means, “Let’s get along. Let’s stop fighting.” Who are the people, if any, toward whom you have maintained less than a full peacefulness? Are there any people whom you are now motivated to contact and seek to engage in a dialogue of peace? What have been your considerations, your resistances, your excuses?
