Peace, Love and Dream
Peace makes the earth green Love warms
human blood Dream paints the sky blue
Peace is the root of love
Love is the flower of peace
And Dream is the fruit of peace and love
Because of love
Because of love
We have the breath of life
Because of love
Our families then become a harbor
Because of love
Our hearts are not so hard any more
Because of love
Money is no longer our master
Because of love
Church is not merely a cold building
Because of love
The cry of abandoned orphans tears
people’s hearts
Because of love
The fires of war then become beautiful
fireworks
Because of love
The wandering souls then find their
destiny
Because of God’s love
We have the expectation of eternal life
Love Prevails over Hate
Freezing wind of hate
Gusts out from cold blood.
And hatred breeds from frozen hearts.
People like angry animals
Fight against each other
A voice from Heaven echoes My lost
sheep,
Come back to me
You will have love and peace
Oh! the love from God
Like sunshine in the winter
Lights up the darkness of peoples’
hearts And dissolves the ice of selfishness. People return to he Kingdom of God
Filled with peace and joy
And Love each other
Just like brothers and sisters
Oh! the power of love
So intense as burning fire
Melts the iceberg of hate.
And light up the kindness in our hearts
Peace of Mind
Peace of mind
Like the serene blue sky
Covers the hurry and scurry world Peace
of mind
Like a patch of green grass
Holds birds and kids together
Peace of mind
Like a cup of cooling water
Puts out the fire of people’s heart
Peace of mind
Like a white angel
Values wisdom rather than weapons
Peace of mind
Like a mercy dove
Weeps for the suffering of people from
war
Peace of mind
brings peace to the world
Some Maxims
When the power of love surpasses the
energy of selfishness, peace will reveal itself to in every part of the world.
Human world are advanced by creativity,
order and kindness, not by force.
Life owes you nothing, but you can own
life.
A beautiful idea is more beautiful than
beauty.
There are too many artists to entertain
the world,
But too few artists to inspire the
world.
Humanity is —you treat everyone, regardless of race, color or nationality with kindness and dignity as your brothers and sisters.
