“What is important is simple: Know what you value and invest your time accordingly. This is integrity and it will bring you peace.”
~ Rhoberta Shaler, PhD

Peace is a transformational experience. It is available to everyone who is willing to acquire and demonstrate the skills and insights necessary for accommodating change effectively.

What you do is who you are, regardless of what you say.
That is an inescapable truth.

Gandhi told us to be the change we want to see in the world. If we want a peaceful world around us, for us and for our grandchildren, we need to demonstrate peace within ourselves and throughout our relationships.

Everything changes.
Not everything transforms,
~ G. Charles Andersen, M.A.

    I recently read a very disturbing condition in the Herald Sun newspaper. It had to do with a salesman who claims to have been a victim of cyber bullying. Stalking in the workplace can take many forms but this case is fascinating because it was carried out by his boss via email.

      Hello, Henriette,

      Welcome to Sow Peace™. Thanks for sharing that story. What disturbs me most about that story is that the man did not stop it, especially if it was contained in emails.

      Did the man think he needed that job so badly that he would accept this treatment over time? Apparently he didn’t like it because it eventually made it into the paper.

      It is unfortunate that neither the man or his boss had the communication, negotiation and conflict management skills to sit down (or email…lol) in respectful ways. People with healthy boundaries don’t behave this way. Both of them could use some guidance that would lead to improved self-esteem and people skills.

      I’m interested to know what brought the story to light. This is the kind of long-term interaction that often ends tragically.

      What do you think?

    Hi there, I found your blog via Google while searching for first aid for a heart attack and your post looks very interesting for me.

    Ah – I moved to Cornwall from London in August last year. I have a view 180 degrees of countryside. This morning an event – after the long winter the sheep are back in the field closest to me. They are all lying down enjoying the fresh grass. Funny lovely creatures, sheep. This is my “peace sow” for today. Glad to be here – on the web and in Launceston on Rhoberta’s site.

    Nice blog. Found it using Bing. Think I’ll be back to see what else you’ve blogged about.

    Indeed, peace is the highest reward there is.
    When you accept that you’re not the body and you’re not the mind, you’re becoming a witness.
    This is the first step to realization, and the immediate reward is… peace.

    Peace,
    Stan

    Thanks for adding that, Stan. Taking conscious steps towards realization of oneness does indeed bring peace…in my experience, too.

    I sit at my computer the first thing just to catch your daily quotes. I truly enjoy each one. Many for me, have been very inspiring and I have shared them with friends, family. I am presently undergoing a change with my health, which has changed my life at the present. So thank you very much and continue to encourage and inspire those of us that are looking for this daily.

Where I first learned the importance of sowing peace…

As a Girl Guide in Canada, our troupe would visit the Peace Arch at the 49th parallet between Canada and the US near Blaine, WA & White Rock, BC. They impressed upon us the need for co-operation and collaboration at the Hands Across the Border gathering each year. It is still a major event. My daughter remembers going there with her Girl Guides as well. It started early!
