Today is International Day of Peace. As we have been doing for quite a few years now, we recently packed and posted our peace weather grams and sent them out into the world. It was much harder to send them to the USA this year - our postal system has stopped mailing packages to the US because of the tariffs, so we had to hope against hope that if we packed them correctly they may get through as a letter or a card. Peace keeps getting harder.
And yet the peace weathergrams flutter and fly; all over the world. In Scotland
In Germany, alongside the remnants of the Berlin Wall.
In Melbourne
In Blackeath in the Blue Mountains
In so many places, in so many small ways, people who care about others and care about peace do small things to build peace in our communities, amongst each other and between peoples. We need to work together and to remain hopeful.
Times are tough, but hope for peace lives on.
