Proactive peacebuilding is to war what exercise and nutrition are to sickness. It doesn’t necessarily mean you can stop it completely, but it does mean you can prevent a lot of it.

You have to value the lives of people in other countries as equal to your own life. And that means that desire for natural resources that fuel your life, or make you a profit, are not as important as the well being of all human beings, and the environment. #AllLifeisSacred

On a soul level may we learn to be compassionate without suffering— on a human level may we integrate peace as a practice. Replace the worship of money with the worship of peace. That’s my wish. #YesRising

All is good if we can throw out the rule book and kill the bad guys! Making the military fight with a rule books is ridiculous! It gets a lot of us killed!

Your idea of “proactive peacebuilding” is akin to flooding the body with chemotherapy for a cancer you don’t have.
