Peace

In John Lennon's song Imagine, he sings; 'Imagine there's no countries. It isn't hard to do. Nothing to kill or die for. And no religion too.' When looked at on a global scale, the problems of this world seem daunting. How do we end wars? How do we stop all the violence and terrorism caused in the name of religion? One person at a time. In 1967, a great man, Muhammad Ali was drafted by the U.S. government to fight in the Vietnam war. He chose to decline. A courageous act for which he suffered considerably. We all have that choice. We can choose the path of peace in every situation.
