Yet Untitled 147 - Through the Lens of Peace
A serving from the cauldron of my head
Dearest Yet Untitler,
There are disturbing things at my doorstep. War. Conflict. You know it all from the news.
There’s a lot I’ve been wanting to express and I’ve been thinking of how to give what’s bubbling in the cauldron of my head some form.
I’ve been noticing something - in the past days, the mundane had taken on a new colour. Small things, like playing UNO with the kids, has suddenly felt not mundane but special. Is it because suddenly peace - that thing that I’m used to taking for granted like the air I breathe - is in question?
There are many words cooking in the cauldron my head. But the most prominent among them is PEACE.
Here’s a bunch images that acquired new significance for me, via the lens of this word.
Peace.
It’s what I wish for all of you - for all of us - now, more than ever.
“Nothing is more precious than Peace. Nothing brings more happiness. Peace is the most basic starting point for the advancement of humankind.”
Daisaku Ikeda, in Vol. 1 of The New Human Revolution
Thanks for listening,
Lots of love and prayers

I have been chanting for peace. I'm glad there has been a ceasefire between India and Pakistan. I hope things don't escalate further 🙏
