| |  | | We Declare: The Truth About War and Our Responsibility For Peace
War is not an accident. War is a mindset that we come from. War requires planning, preparation, decisions, and finally a declaration. And then we must endure its consequences.
Peace is not an accident. Peace is a mindset that we come from. Peace requires a vigilant, vigorous vision of respectful co-existence that is in the best interests of all who inhabit the earth. It is a commitment, a way of living, and a way of being. Most importantly, peace is everyone's responsibility. It can't be left for someone else to do.
All monumental movements begin with a sequence of small acts. Clear-minded, peaceful thoughts give birth to new visions of harmonious humanity and peaceful actions are the natural outcome.
We Declare: The Truth About War and Our Responsibility for Peace exposes the human face of war and calls upon all of us to be instruments of peace in our daily lives.
Penny Rock, as an Army nurse stationed in Vietnam, silenced herself for over 30 years. Since breaking her silence, she has seen her responsibility to not gloss over war, but to use the lessons of war as a teacher for peace.
This book, of poetry and prose, encourages us to shift our focus from pointing fingers, finding fault, and laying blame, to engaging in respectful dialogue to create a personal and national priority to embark on the path of peace. |
