In a world where hate can be overwhelming, let’s remember the transformative power of kindness. By doing good to those who wrong us, we not only change their hearts but also our own.

Amiel, Henri
1821–1881, Switzerland
There is only one way of not hating those who do us wrong, and that is
by doing them good.

Buchman’s wisdom still resonates today. Let’s reflect on the balance between our needs and greed, and consider surrendering to a greater plan for a more fulfilling life.

Buchman, Franklin Nathaniel Daniel
1878, Pennsylvania–1961 Germany
There is enough in the world for everyone’s need, but not for
everyone’s greed.

Buchman believed that the root of all problems were the personal
problems of fear and selfishness. Further, Buchman believed that the
solution to living with fear and selfishness was to surrender one’s life
over to God’s Plan.

This stark reality underscores the devastating impact of war, turning the natural order on its head. While peace allows families to follow the rhythm of life, war disrupts it with unimaginable grief. It’s time to confront the true cost of conflict and strive for a world where peace prevails, sparing fathers the heartbreak of burying their sons.

Herodotus
484-425 B.C., Greece)
In peace, sons bury their fathers. In war, fathers bury their sons.

War makes rattling good history; but Peace is poor reading.

The thrill, chaos, and drama of war often overshadow the quiet, steady progress of peace. But why do we find conflict so captivating while overlooking the profound impact of peace? It’s time to challenge our narratives and give peace the recognition it deserves. Let’s dive into the stories of peace that shape our world, even if they don’t make the headlines.

Hardy, Thomas
1840–1928, England
My argument is that War makes rattling good history;
but Peace is poor reading.

“Martin Luther King Jr. is remembered as our prince of peace, of civil rights. We owe him something major that will keep his memory alive.” – Morgan Freeman

It’s time to honor Dr. King’s legacy powerfully. Freeman challenges us to break free from the constraints of racial labels. “I am going to stop calling you a white man and I’m going to ask you to stop calling me a black man.”

Join us in embracing a future where we see each other for who we truly are—beyond the color of our skin. Let’s continue the fight for true equality and unity.

The horror is life-changing. Once you’ve seen combat in war, it doesn’t go away—it’s with you forever.” These powerful words from Vietnam Veteran Tim Keenan, a Silver Star recipient, highlight the enduring impact of war. PTSD doesn’t just affect the individual; it ripples through families and communities.

Join Veterans for Peace in raising awareness and advocating for those who continue to fight the hidden battle of PTSD. It’s time to confront the realities of war’s aftermath and support our veterans in their journey toward healing.

Veterans for Peace
1985,
“The horror is life-changing,” he said. “Once you’ve seen combat in
war, it doesn’t go away – it’s with you forever. And one person who
comes back suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
affects the family, and the community, forever.”
–by Vietnam Veteran, Tim Keenan, who had been awarded the Silver Star for
his combat service with the U.S. Infantry.
Members of Veterans for Peace in several Northern California chapters
were the first veterans to go back to Viet Nam for humanitarian work
and reconciliation. These members helped construct the first Medical
Clinic by Americans since the war.

Veterans for Peace has three integrated program areas that work
together to forward our grand mission to abolish war. It is the intent of
Veterans for Peace to:
• educate the public about the full cost of war
• be a leading example of resisting militarism through efforts to
end current wars and work to change U.S. foreign policy from
war to diplomacy
• heal the wounds of war and build a just and peaceful society.
These three program areas with our legislative work are a foundation
to forward the mission of Veterans for Peace.
Today, members remain actively engaged in campaigns to help bring a
clearer understanding of the cost of war. Much of our current work is
focused on the endless global war on terror, with projects to support
returning veterans, close the School of the Americas, close
Guantanamo Bay, oppose drone warfare, and counter military
recruitment efforts in schools.

Keenan and others in the area who have served in the military – and
know the cost of war first-hand – find support, fellowship and
opportunities to work for an end to war as members of Veterans for
Peace.
