Wasted human potential, my own and others, is one of my greatest irritants. When I witness strife, I immediately want to be a peacemaker so everyone can quickly get back to the creative work they were designed for. This internal passion to create harmony among diverse factions has been constant since my childhood. Fighting and any other intentional conflict is a waste of the precious moments we have to build a better world. I hope this is one of the key motivating factors that drives us in our careers. I tried my best to nurture this vision among my young students when I was an educator. As I develop my current work among those in their second half of life, empowering peacemaking will remain one of my chief goals. This world would be a horrible place to live if it was ruled by those who love to destroy any form of cooperation which leads to peace. I believe most of us choose everyday to build rather than tear down. So let’s continue to do all the good we can. #humanpotential #peace #peacemaking #peacemakers #strife #conflict #conflictresolution #empowerment #cooperation #harmony #lifebridge360

Today is International Day of Peace. This is a UN-sponsored day dedicated to strengthening the idea of peace through a day of cease-fires and non-violence. It can feel as though we as individuals are very helpless when it comes to peace on earth, with global conflicts and trouble and strife all over. But we can make a difference in our little corner of the world, and if we got enough of those corners, they can make a difference. Imagine being one Lego-brick in a giant build...each one may not look like much by itself, but each one builds on others and supports others, creating one big whole. So, doing our best to create our version of peace in our own areas can be vital. And I encourage you to do one thing that maybe you've been thinking about doing that will help create that in your life. #InternationalDayOfPeace #Peace #PeaceHaven #GrowthMindset #Confidence #ConfidenceCoach #SensitiveLeadership #SensitivePersonProblems #HighlySensitive #HighlySensitivePerson #HighlySensitivePeople #SelfCare #SelfEsteem #Mindset #Growth #SelfGrowth #SelfLove #HealthyMind #WomenPower #Motivation #WomenInWellness #PersonalGrowth #SensitivePower

Keynote Speaker Purpose, Purposeful Leadership | Coach | Thought Leader | W50 | Express Your Whole Self & Amplify Your Impact In The World
'When I speak at events, I always ask the audience what do you value? Over the last few weeks, I have been asking myself do we value peace? We live in a world that only values things it can put a price on. But there is a difference between what is valuable and what has a price. What is most valuable to us often has no price but to live without those things carries an unbearable cost. The cost of loss of human life, the cost of families torn apart, the cost of injury and trauma, the cost of destruction, the long-term cost of poverty. No child should live in a war zone, no person should be without basic human needs, no one should have to suffer because of their religious beliefs and violence of any kind should not be tolerated. Creating a world which values peace and human life requires us to know the difference between what is most valuable and what simply has a price' From my latest essay 'If We Want Peace We Have to Choose Peace' - link to the full piece in the comments. #purpose #leadership #peace# #citizenship

Dr. Chuba Okadigbo's words resonate deeply on this International Day of Peace. As we reflect on his wisdom, let's remember that true peace transcends tribal, religious, and political affiliations. In our pursuit of a harmonious world, it's essential to prioritize truth and justice above all else. Education and exposure should empower us to rise above divisive sentiments and work towards a more inclusive, understanding society. Let's embrace this day with open hearts, ready to engage in conversations that bridge divides and foster genuine connections. Together, we can turn our collective potential into meaningful action for a world where peace reigns supreme. #InternationalDayofPeace #UnityInDiversity #TruthAndJustice #HarmonyInAction

🌟 Embrace the Power of Peace 🕊️ Today, we celebrate the International Day of Non-Violence, a day that reminds us of the incredible strength that lies within choosing peace over conflict. 🌍✌️ 🌈 In a world that sometimes seems divided by differences, let us remember that non-violence is not a sign of weakness, but a symbol of courage and compassion. It's about finding common ground and resolving conflicts with empathy and understanding. 🤝 💪 Mahatma Gandhi once said, "You must be the change you want to see in the world." Today, let's be that change! Let's spread kindness, tolerance, and love through our words and actions. Let's build bridges, not walls. Take a moment today to reach out to someone, mend a broken relationship, or simply lend a helping hand to a stranger. Small acts of non-violence can create a ripple effect of positivity that reaches far and wide. 🌊 🙏 On this International Day of Non-Violence, let's come together as a global community and pledge to make the world a more peaceful and harmonious place for all. 🌎 Interested in supporting the peace-building efforts of thousands of young leaders across the globe?

I hope you are as shocked as I do when realizing the story this banner tells. I am shocked and disappointed. The weight of a shattered promise, not just my parents', but a collective hope that our generation wouldn't know the horrors of war. We were raised on the dream of a peaceful life, where conflict wouldn't be the defining narrative of the Middle East and that we will not have to serve in the army. But here we are, facing a reality that feels crueller than any childhood aspirations. I was naive. It's okay to feel naive, to have held onto that glimmer of hope. It's a testament to my inherent desire for peace, a belief in the potential for humanity to learn and grow. Maybe disillusionment doesn't have to be the end of the road. I am fighting my self, trying to acknowledge the new reality and still choose to aspire for a better future. I am looking at this picture, allowing it to fuel my anger, fear, not my despair. I do my best to let it be a stark reminder of the cost of inaction, of the fragility of peace. Trying to channel that fear into action, into conversations with my children, into demanding better from our leaders, into supporting organizations and countries working tirelessly towards a peaceful resolution. We may not have the luxury of naivety anymore, but we can still be pragmatic and proactive. We can be the generation that finally breaks the cycle of violence, not through blind optimism, but through informed action and unwavering commitment. I am trying hard to keep this hope. To follow this path. 🤞 #educateyourself #peacemaking

Fairness and Equity: How do you Define it and Measure it? As westerner I can relate to fairness, justice. However, what does justice and fairness mean to other cultures and their way of living? As westerner, are we truthfully fair to way of believing and living which is different than us ? We have to careful in not using our own yardstick as measure of justice and fairness in the world.

As a simple and eternal apprentice, I am constantly learning and evolving, and I recently came across a powerful quote from the Talmud that I wanted to share with you all. "The true peace is not simply the absence of war, but the presence of justice and equity among all people and religions." This quote reminds us that peace is not just about avoiding conflict, but about actively promoting fairness and equality for all. It challenges us to think beyond our differences and work towards a more just and harmonious world. In a time where division and conflict seem to be prevalent, it is important to remember that true peace can only be achieved when we treat each other with respect and strive for fairness and equality. Let us all be inspired by this profound wisdom and work towards a world where peace and justice go hand in hand. THE ABRAHAMIC BUSINESS CIRCLE ⭕️ #technology #management #humanity #innovation #peace

This simple yet profound statement reminds us of the invaluable nature of inner tranquility. Peace, often overlooked in the hustle and bustle of life, is the cornerstone of our well-being. When we sacrifice our peace for the pursuit of material gains or external validation, we pay a steep price indeed. In today's fast-paced world, it's easy to get caught up in the endless pursuit of success, wealth, or societal approval. But at what cost? Our mental and emotional health suffer, relationships strain, and happiness wanes. This aphorism serves as a gentle but vital reminder to prioritize our inner harmony above all else. When we make choices that protect our peace, we invest in our long-term happiness and fulfillment, ultimately realizing that true wealth lies in a tranquil heart and a peaceful mind.

Lydia supports people and institutions on their healing and justice journey. We do this through reimagining ways of being, practices (doing), and policies that center humanity and liberation.
𝑻𝒐𝒅𝒂𝒚, 𝑰 𝑪𝒉𝒐𝒐𝒔𝒆 𝑷𝑬𝑨𝑪𝑬 Today is International Day of Peace. A day observed around the world devoted to strengthening the ideals of peace through non-violence and cease-fire. When we think about ways in which we can resist white supremacy and all of the oppressive isms that plague our society, peace, rest, and healing aren't typically practices that come to mind. Today, our hope is that we all begin to understand the impact that 1 person’s healing can have on a community and what can happen when we choose OUR OWN PEACE. “𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝒎𝒐𝒔𝒕 𝒊𝒎𝒑𝒐𝒓𝒕𝒂𝒏𝒕 𝒂𝒔𝒑𝒆𝒄𝒕 𝒐𝒇 𝒔𝒐𝒄𝒊𝒂𝒍 𝒄𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒈𝒆 𝒊𝒔 𝒏𝒐𝒕 𝒑𝒓𝒐𝒃𝒍𝒆𝒎 𝒂𝒏𝒂𝒍𝒚𝒔𝒊𝒔, 𝒑𝒐𝒘𝒆𝒓 𝒃𝒖𝒊𝒍𝒅𝒊𝒏𝒈, 𝒏𝒂𝒓𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒗𝒆 𝒄𝒉𝒂𝒏𝒈𝒆, 𝒐𝒓 𝒄𝒐𝒂𝒍𝒊𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒃𝒖𝒊𝒍𝒅𝒊𝒏𝒈- 𝒊𝒕’𝒔 𝒉𝒆𝒂𝒍𝒊𝒏𝒈.” 𝑺𝒉𝒂𝒘𝒏 𝑨.
