A reflection for peace… a builder or a divider?

Sowing peace

We are all ambassadors of the world…
We have the power to sow peace or create discontent based on our attitudes and intentions…
With mindfulness, we can observe and ask ourselves the following questions…

Do I sow peace and ease, or do I sow discontent and unease?
Do I use my words to unite, to bring people together, or do I create barriers and rifts that separate people?
Do I hold my judgment until I seek to understand or do I judge without any thoughts and discernment?
Do I cast doubts and create confusion in situations, or do I help to find clarity?

Am I a builder in my world, for my world?
Am I a helper to see the needs of others, or am I caught up in my drama?
With mindfulness, we can set our intentions to be an ambassador of peace in our world every day…
