“Peace is where there is diversity that finds a higher oneness.”

—Tzvi Freeman, Canadian Rabbi and Author

Peace isn’t the absence of conflict — it’s learning to hold differences inside a larger wholeness.

In every conversation, meeting, or family gathering, diversity of opinion, emotion, and experience is present.

When we listen instead of reacting, when we seek understanding rather than victory, we start building a peace that’s alive and practical.

When you notice a viewpoint that challenges you, stay curious instead of getting defensive.

Ask, “What truth might they be carrying?”

Each time we choose empathy over ego we create a ripple of unity.

Peace begins not in global treaties, but in these small moments where the many find their shared oneness.

EXERCISE:

Where in your world could you find and create greater peace by embracing diversity and discovering a new level of shared understanding and oneness?
