Peace.
On Friday, I attended my college’s Alumnae Board meeting and Promise of Peace fundraising campaign kick off event on the college grounds. The President of Peace College, Laura Bingham, who is always full of energy and inspiration shared this quote with us…
Peace. It does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble, or hard work. It means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart. (Author unknown)
This definition of Peace was certainly an appropriate reflection of the journey of a Peace College student and graduate. It was also so much more than that. It’s a perfect definition of what Peace should mean in every aspect of our lives. It the definition of Peace that we often forget in this busy world.
I am at peace knowing that in the midst of the hustle and bustle, the deadlines and the stresses of daily life, I feel confident about my abilities to manage and overcome the obstacles that present themselves as long as I have peace in my heart and love in my life.

PEACE a very important word to think about, espesially in these next few weeks. The word means so many different things to many people. We should all respect everyones personal feeling of it, and not play judge and jury to others interpretations. It was nice to see how you were moved by the quote that, Peace College President shared with her Alumnae.
