The Price of Peace
April Monthly Event
Peace is associated with many characteristics that are considered desirable, including better economic outcomes, measures of well-being, levels of inclusiveness and environmental sustainability. The real question here is how we act as individuals and as a collective. Are our urges to react without a second thought to every action we encounter greater than peace? Is our desire to be considered important by others worth many deaths and sufferings? What are we willing to pay for peace?
To maintain peace and be peace is a courageous act! These acts can be as simple as letting go of that prestigious job with countless benefits along with the toxicity in its package or as big as sacrificing a life for an idea that protects society.

Are We Desensitized to Poverty?
Are we way too familiar with suffering that we become less and less emotionally affected? We forget that those kids in the street have the same wants and needs we do. It has come to a point that most of us avoid individuals who might need urgent medical care for fear of it being a con. If not, it’s the ‘bystander effect’ where people are less likely to offer help or intervene when other people are present because of the assumption that someone else will take action.
