Here are the answers to the What does "Peace" mean to you? club poll.
~ Peace to me is...
Safety. Equality. More love, less hate, money, power. No violence. Freedom from the "status-quo". HUGS. (They just make everything better, don't they?) It's a simple word with so many meanings. A simple meaning with so many complications. Think about it.

~ it means people not killing eachother...basically. people try to make up a whole bunch of external stuff to add to the integral definition of peace, but at its core, peace means people not killing eachother. and that is a very, VERY good thing.
~ I say, peace is truly accepting people's different views on life, the universe and everything else. Peace should be simple. Peace is talking and using respect instead of using violence.
~ peace is general acceptance of your own personal universe- yourself, your atmosphere, the people in and around your life; despite whatever flaws and shortcomings that come with. 'knowing you know nothing, are a tiny speck, and still remain tranquil and comfortable with it.
~ * Peace is being able to live through life, without ever wondering how you would want to change what happened.
lol... or.. hmhmh .. the one i really love is as my godmother said...
the inner power to live by one's convictions, be fearless in your vision, cross set boundaries, shout from the rooftops for the causes you support, be a voice for those who are afraid to speak, dance to gay abandon with people you love,travel to the extremities of the Earth, cry without being weak, and most importantly give without asking..., PEACE,is living without living a lie..!
~ Peace is respect, to the one sitting next to you, to the one standing in front of you, and to those ones you cannot see.
~ To me it's "live and let live". Do anything you want, just so long as it doesn't hurt anyone, physically or other.
~ Peace is feeling some sort of love for everyone and everything around you, even when it irritates you. Peace is not finding the need to prove your point with hostility. It's hard, because hostile is naturally what humanity has turned into, but over time, peace and tolerance can prevail.
~ Peace is a love, respect, and acceptance of all around you
~ Peace is so unique to each individual and comes from within.
~ Peace is when everyone can accept everything for what it is and not just accepting other people and there thoughts but animals plants the planet even the things we dont know about you have to accept everything and nothing accept death or you wont live peace is pure acceptance
~ Peace is like spreading the harmony ... You want to see that harmony? ... Start with yourself ... and it will spread all around you ... It's this inner satisfaction ... Inner balance ... Inner Harmony ... which will prevent you from hurting any matter or developing any aggressive attitude ... So ya ... Peace !!
~ peace is respect... peace is acceptance... peace is pacifism... peace is many things, but personally, I don't think they are meant to be separated. I feel that if you try to define and analyze something overtly, you lose the true meaning of it- so to explain what I think peace is, I'll tell you what peace does.
peace promotes growth, peace stifles conflict, peace calms the soul, peace brings wisdom, peace makes one humble, and if allowed, peace could save us all.
~ Peace is love. When people hate, violence ensues, because hate is such a negative state of mind. If everyone loved and tolerated there would be more peace in the world. If you know love, you know peace, and vise versa. When you have both, life is beautiful!
♥
~ In my opinion, peace is realizing we are all connected, and acting in ways that express our connection with one another. Simple.
~ when your in harmony with yourself and the world around you
~ Peace is love and acceptance for all living beeings. Peace is a state of mind. Peace is necessary in this world!
~ Peace is essentially love, as others have stated. When you love one another enough to care for them, despite their differences or opinions, then there is peace. When you realize we are all humans, when the same hopes, dreams, loves, cares, and fears; and they should be loved just as much as you love yourself; then there is peace.
~ Peace means we are are One.
~ Peace to mean is love, respect, trust, honesty and laughter. Rather it be with the one you love, a friend, a pet or with ones self.
&
~ Peace is the social harmony and kindness towards one another, peace is the belief that we are equal in everyway and peace is also internal and external. if you are peaceful, others will join in.
~ Peace is just being able to accept those around you for who they are, knowing that it is okay to be who you are, knowing every evil has some good, and everyone deserves a second chance.
~ It means knowing and accepting yourself. I think that if you're at peace with yourself, everything else will follow.
~ It's something you long for every time you feel the world is bad. It's a feeling you have always in your heart but you don't always understand what it is. It's something you believe in though you know it's not possible. And because you still believe, you're a hippie.
That is what I think peace is. And one day we will achieve a world complete in peace, unity, and harmony - where everyone can accept each other, and their beliefs, and we are not subjected to terms such as "black", "white", "eastern", or "western" but rather we subject ourselves to our ethnic and national histories, but more importantly act as children of this land, to care for mother earth all she has given us!
Thankyou for your time if you have read this, peace and one love to you all!
~ Peace to me means that everything is in balance. We as humans are in balance with out environment. The environment not only meaning the earth, creatures and plants; it must also mean with ourselves. Full on acceptance of who we are and who everyone else is.
The following Image takes me back to a time of innocence when everyone tended to "wish for world peace", either when breaking the chicken "wish bone", or blowing out the birthday candles... Just remember, we DO affect the entire existence by our own thoughts, words, deeds, and like it or not, we Are responsible...

I'll be right back with a poem I wrote.
Peace Lovey Dovey!!!

Man understands love as the ant understands the tree...
Oh... well then, it's my "Kaleidoscope Sphere 118" and actually, the one's following that one. These are representations of time effort, diligence and patience in reaching Higher goals.
My Poem is submitted here is:
Freedom
Do you begin to see what it takes to be free from strife in this life?
If you want to be happy then don't be so snappy.
Want to have fun? Then let it be done!
In order to find joy there's no need to be coy...
Dismiss the parasite with all your might!
What's been stolen from you right out of the blue
Was only your birthright. It's time to get things right.
Your heritage awaits, no longer procastinate...
Eternity is here and now, so Why do you bow?
Either to Man or God? Do you need a prod?
Then let it begin from deep within...
It's up to you, so pay your due...
Look at the light and let things be right!
The Answer is NOT above! The Only answer is Love.

I'd like to show you some awesome nature related work from more or less unknown artists which deserve more attention - this is a must see, you won't regret it!!!
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
