Try as I may
I cannot run away
from the truth.
Love does not
conquer all.
But I have yet
to find
a better solution
to stopping war.

May ripples of LOVE
become waves of PEACE

Oh my - been eating smarties have you?  Now this was the coolest, smartest and truest thing I have read in a long time.

                
Let there be peace on earth,
and let it begin with me.

(sad sigh) Oh Kacy, sometimes I too think the same thing, or otherwise love is important but there is an extra ingredient that must be added to temper the instincts of man and stop the process of hate that causes war! (big hugggsssss) This is wonderfully heartfelt, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Kacy, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

...perhaps erasing religion...?  Or maybe an alien invasion against all of humanity...?  Or gentically modifying the fear strand in humanity's DNA to contain acceptance...?  Or just waving our race off into the sunset...  (I prefer Love, myself...)

Love alone will not stop war...but respect, understanding, compassion and patience may help..

...believe what your heart feels...

Kacy, I agree with Scorpio...LOVE  alone can't stop war, but it is the most important ingredient for the solution......WHATEVER   THAT   IS!!!! I just wish we could find a solution before we destroy ourselves. Don't you?
