Our 2023 Theme is
"Change the Room"The transforming power of walking in peaceCreated by graphic artist Ann Adamus @ Zoolatry
Last year we wrote about FREEDOM and how that privilege is entwined with PEACE. We said No Freedom No Peace. You were amazingly insightful and bold from all corners of the Earth. We talked about how to GET FREE in the midst of unwanted invasion (personal or global). This year we're turning inward and moving outward. Let me explain.This is my challenge to you
Imagine what would happen if instead of trying to find peace, we walked in with it?What if we simply carried it in?
What if we were the peace everyone else was searching for? What if we expected the room to change when we entered? Don't you think it would?Why can't we be the water and the well?
When I was a little girl I watched my Papa change atmospheres all the time.It was as effortless as changing his hat.People acted differently when he was around. You never heard loud voices or cursing or strife when he was in the room; they respected him too much. What he carried was palpable.
I've spent a lifetime trying to follow his example, trying to understand where that power came from, then founded an accidental peace movement from a ragged bag of his dusty marbles. Decades later they came to life in the story that became Dona Nobis Pacem for all of us in 2006. It was only then that I knew his uncanny penchant for atmosphere shifts was no accident at all.
Years later he is STILL transforming that wide-eyed little girl STILL transforming all of us.A bowl of marbles and one personHis quiet unconditional lovechanged rooms, changed atmospheres, changed me, changes youStill.
What you carry is palpable.HOW you carry it alters the atmosphere you're in
You either change the atmosphere
or the atmosphere changes you
Maybe if we all learn how to change the room we could collectively change the world.
We have called attention to the absence of what we want. Instead of focusing on the absence of peace, why don't we just walk in with it like we own the planet?
Because. we. do.
Maybe I was a bit naively ambitious in 2006 when I asked you to change the world and expected a peace globe to magically appear on 70 million blogs. Today there are 1.9 BILLION websites worldwide; of those, 600 MILLION blogs. Apparently, we're still expecting to make a dent in the atmosphere because, after all, we're still here.
So walk in like you own it.
The planet is groaning for peace and stability and the world is watching how you carry yourself.
We are not the ones to fall down or offer tired platitudes. We are not the ones!!
If that's who we are, if that's ALL we are, then I'm out right now.
I'm about to make a bold statement!
THIS YEAR you will write words that transform. And nothing less.
You will draw and paint and sing and created from a place of clear knowing! This will be the most powerful year of peace posts we've ever seen.
From the moment you set your pen to paper, you will feel it. It will happen in you. How do I know?
Because you've been peace blogging for many many blog years and you just happened to walk right past me a time or two.
I caught it then and I sense it now.
So tell us. Tell us how you do it.
You will write stories of how you walked on seeming hot coals unscathed in the past year.
. When all seemed lost and you wanted to give up, you prevailed. When your body and spirit grew weary and the challenges seemed more than you could bear, you prevailed. .
Someone out there needs to hear that story.
We don't change the world or the room by ourselves.
We pass what we carry to each other.
Peace expands.
We transform.
People will behave differently around you.
I promise.
Let's go! It's a launch.
