Love is acceptance. \u00a0It is whatever brings you closer to peace, both inside and outside of you. \u00a0Love is following your heart because that will bring you to inner peace. \u00a0Love is serving others because that is what will bring you to outer peace.<\/p>\n

World peace starts with you. \u00a0It\u2019s a decision to be completely true to yourself. \u00a0Only through that truth can you have a positive impact on the planet. \u00a0If you are not true to yourself, if you are lying or holding yourself back, how can you expect to make the world a better place?<\/p>\n

When you take away the borders, the politics, and the skin color, we\u2019re all human. \u00a0Every human feels emotion. \u00a0Every human feels sadness and joy. \u00a0Every human wants to be loved and has the capacity to love. \u00a0It\u2019s easy to lose sight of the fact that every single person you pass by today feels things and struggles just as much as you do.<\/p>\n

As individuals we build forts around ourselves. \u00a0We need more security, more money, more stuff. \u00a0The more we acquire, the more we are afraid to lose. \u00a0We become preemptively defensive and emotionally withdrawn from the world. \u00a0As nations we reinforce that fear. \u00a0We hoard resources, build military, and create immigration laws to protect against other nations, against other people.<\/p>\n

We spend so much energy protecting ourselves against others that we lose sight of one very simple fact – we are all one human family sharing this planet. \u00a0What would the planet look like if we took all the energy we spend protecting ourselves and spent it helping each other?<\/p>\n

Imagine a world with no borders. \u00a0No military and no wars. \u00a0No poverty because the trillions of dollars that governments spend globally on defense are invested in humanity. \u00a0Is it so hard to imagine? \u00a0It has nothing to do with religion, capitalism or socialism. \u00a0It\u2019s about being human and accepting that everyone else is too.<\/p>\n

You have the power to create a world based on love. \u00a0 You shape the world with every choice you make – the way you treat people, the way you earn money, the words you speak, the products you use, and\u00a0the companies you support. \u00a0Every day is an opportunity to cultivate love towards yourself and others.<\/p>\n

When you serve others, you serve yourself. \u00a0You create the groundwork for a magical world where every person is his brother\u2019s and sister\u2019s keeper. \u00a0When you serve others, they serve you. \u00a0You can focus on watching out for yourself or you can imagine a world where seven billion people are watching out for you.<\/p>\n

It all starts with you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
