Children Need Peace
Flowers in a garden can only grow and blossom if they are given good soil, water and the sun. The world's children, like flowers, can't blossom and reach their potential unless they are given an environment (garden) to grow in that is safe, nurturing and has the elements available for them to reach their potential. A world that lives at peace, and is fair and just to all is the garden that the world's children need to grow in.
Sow your garden with the seeds of peace so our young can live their lives to the fullest.
The artwork in this video is from the winners of the 2007-08 Lions Club International Children's Peace Poster Contest. Many of the photos are of some of the beautiful children I have met on my travels and others are from other human rights concerned photographers.

If you look at their art, their smiles and into their eyes all you can see and feel is Peace.

Thank you Candice, they are priceless.
I became a grandfather last year and would like my grandson and other children in the world to inherit a better world than what we are presenting to them right now.
I really believe that it is happening. Maybe we won't see it in our life, but the world is changing for the better. We just need to let people know that the people of peace far outnumber those of violence everywhere. We need to empower the peaceful around the world instead of always reacting to the perceived violence.
Peace & Best Wishes,
Steve

Thank you for the kind comment. A number of the children in the video are from small villages in Pakistan where my wife and I visited with them during a peace program I was doing there in Nov. & Dec. 2008, and previous trips to Iran, India and Pakistan.
Peace & Best Wishes,
Steve

So True! I love it!
