From the beginning of civilization, there have been individuals who try to suppress human potential for peace for their own personal gains or vendettas. However, few have had long-term success, and there's a good reason for this.
The goodness within people to come together in love, peace and harmony is not only unlimited, but all-powerful.
Humans have evolved over hundreds of thousands of years to develop the strength and integrity to survive. Part of this is our ability to maintain a sense of calm during times of stress, as well as the strength to embrace positivity over negativity. These are not just personal growth activities, but survival skills, since anxiety is known to have a detrimental effect on an individual's mental, physical and spiritual well-being.
Author and philosopher Ilchi Lee believes that the human potential for peace is unlimited and that it will ultimately prevail over the entire planet, leading to a world full of people who have mutual respect and love for one another. When world peace is achieved, we may all come to think of ourselves as Earth Citizens, putting an end to war and conflict.
