LOVE is How we'll Ask for Peace..


Afghan & international youth peace volunteers say that 

“Love is How We'll Ask for Peace.”


With love, we ask the 2009 Nobel Peace Laureate President Obama to answer the Afghan youth peace message ‘Reconciliation of Civil Hearts’
We are a group of Afghan youth and college students who, together with international volunteers, wish to recover humanity’s smile.
In the midst of war, we wish for non-violence and ordinary peace and and end to violence.
To live.
As ordinary, dignified human beings.
To recover trust and hope. And smile.
 


Most of us in our disparate world today would hardly believe or be affected by our ordinary, almost mundane burden.

 

But we’ve always imagined that when people come together to stand for love, life changes.

 

Even if changes happen in only a tiny part of the world, a little community, a small fraternity.. But the changes are worthwhile for holistic, consistent growth.


We believe it is love that will triumph.

 

It is this love that would keep us journeying in the snow and the rain, even if we fall.

 

It is this love that lends meaning to any family or friendship.

 

It is this love we’re counting on not to fail.

 

This love is how we’ll ask for peace.


With love, we request the 2009 Nobel Peace Laureate, President Obama, to answer the Afghan youth peace message ‘Reconciliation of Civil Hearts’, as part of his wider message of peace to the peaceful future of our shared world,
on or about the 10th of December, the day he will receive the Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo, Norway.

  Please Join the 2nd Cup of Tea Peace Vigil with us . .



  


We're Thankful that  

U.S. Ambassador to Afghanistan, Karl Eikenberry, kindly visited our Afghan peace vigil group at the Bamiyan Peace Park in Afghanistan on the 28th of October 2009.
During the visit, he promised the Afghan peace youth vigilers that he would get a response from President Obama, to their message of peace “Reconciliation of Civil Hearts”

 

Internationally, in the next one month before President Obama receives his Nobel Peace Prize in Norway, we ask for the heart-to-heart support of Afghan and international youth peace volunteer supporters



"We learn to overcome when we understand each other, so we ask for the nurturing of wide-scale, local and international humane relationships that would empathize with our shared human condition, restore trust, and tear down barriers.”

 

Our Journey to Smile is a non-violent, peace-building effort and event approved by the UN International Peace Day under the Culture of Peace Initiative. http://internationaldayofpeace.org/participate/events_calendar.html
