This simple peace or antiwar quote challenges our thinking by asking a question about what we are willing to risk or invest in securing peace.\u00a0 Everyone seems to understand that war is costly.\u00a0 However, oddly, many people seem to think that peace should just happen.\u00a0 Though, this might be true, if we just dis-invested from war, but this would involve great risk and sacrifices that I would simply call taking risks to secure peace.\u00a0 Either way peace takes work!\u00a0\u00a0 The status quo, which is solidly in the war camp, is what will continue to happen if we do not change the way we do things.\u00a0 This involves a cost, a high cost, the cost of war.\u00a0 This is a choice, just as much as making a conscious choice to take the risks to secure peace.\u00a0 As quoted elsewhere, war is costly, peace is priceless.\u00a0 I hope this peace and antiwar quote stimulates some meditation upon what price you are willing to pay help secure peace on this precious planet, for all of its inhabitants human and otherwise.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
