The Solution For World Peace

What’s in a handshake? What's its value or worth? Between any two people, All over this beautiful Earth. The shake outshines Ten thousand @replies. It’s not a typed “Hi mate”, It's much more personalized. A shake can mean “Well done”, From New York to a frozen Moscow. A contract, a promise, an amnesty, A truce, good bye, a plain hello. Is the value the feel of human touch, When starting intimate relations? It’s so powerful it can even Create peace between two nations. Handshakes should be taught To every school girl and boy. We might then have universal peace, Physically connecting all with joy.
