Peace Culture

This blog isn't really a product of one mind--or even an original idea, for that matter--but is rather a conglomerated attempt to encourage the everyday and even mundane practice of goodwill and conscientious, intentional thoughtfulness toward our fellow human beings. It (the blog, not the idea) came about after one of those discussions that happen between friends who only get to see each other once in a great while and just have to hash out all of the big thoughts that have been plaguing them in the intervening absences.

When certain things, however small, improve the overall quality of a person's life, there is a ripple that exists far beyond what they may be aware of. That ripple can extend that joy or contentment to many other people, for as long as that event and that memory are present to at least one person. Peacefulness ought to be (and can be) at it's very essence a practical stimulus--think "Pay it Forward."

Our goal, for the time being and in this medium, is simply to relate and present those moments as they occur--to you, to me, to whomever can share them and extend the ripple of the joy they created. We hope you enjoy.
