To be completely honest, it's not in the things we own. Happiness, fulfillment, peace, does not come in form. We've heard this all our lives, and as corny as you may have taken it or as phony as you perceive it to be, it is the ultimate truth. When we meet strangers, often times than not, we hide behind forms to portray who we are - we act happy because of the things we own and the accomplishments we've founded. We seldom share honest joys or real despair; matters of the heart and soul. We rarely reach out and ask for help in the form of touch, love or understanding. It is this ditch of selfishness and disregard that humanity keeps digging deeper and deeper. It is our solidarity that is eventually going to destroy us. We have to find our interconnectedness and tune our spirits. We cannot wish to find peace through outward forms, for peace develops from the inside. Once we accept who we are, honestly and completely; once we believe in our dreams and our strength; once we plan our steps carefully and execute courageously, then peace be to us. Then, and only then, will the power of love shine from our hearts and unto everyone we meet.
