Peace

A meaningful life
In a meaningful world
For every thinking soul
Is our first longing
Our deepest longing
Our greatest challenge.

A meaningful life
In a meaningful world
With enough air for all to breath
With enough water for all to drink
With enough food for all eat
With enough room for all to sleep
With a why for all to live by
With a how for all to get through
Is all it takes to us all as a whole
To accept necessary diffferences
To respect necessary differences
To learn from necessary differences
To grow from necessary differences
To fight for peace from the inside oute
To fight for peace from the outside in
