Today is the 25th of May. I can’t believe it’s been 11 years since HWPL was founded, and I’ve been a supporter for 8 years now.
I’m grateful, because in this way, little by little, I’ve come to think about peace every day. I guess peace is a habit!
Thoughts have a quality called inertia. If you think in a certain direction, you will eventually move in that direction, and eventually I, my friends, my neighbours, my city, and society will move in that direction.
I think it’s a force for good, and I think it’s a culture of peace. Article 10 of the DPCW is ‘Spreading a culture of peace’. Before I knew it, I was upholding DPCW international law! Suddenly I’m happy.
HWPL’s 11th Annual Commemoration of the Declaration of World Peace and Peace Walk
The ‘HWPL’s 11th Annual Commemoration of the Declaration of World Peace and Peace Walk’ event is held in global today.
The event, which is held under the theme of “Remembering the Peace Heroes of Nearby War.” Any citizen interested in peace can experience the horrors of war and participate in the peace movement through booth.
HWPL is said to hold a meaningful event every year to remember the sacrifices of the Korean War veterans without forgetting Peace Heroes.
The event embodies the citizens’ active will to establish an era of peace. Through the event, HWPL will tell the world that the remarkable journey of building a world of peace begins with the citizens, the true leaders of the global community.
HWPL’s Legislate Peace (LP) project has led activities to reach a world of peace built by citizens since 2013. The project hosts citizen-led global campaigns aiming to realize sustainable peace, long yearned by every member of the global community.
25 May has become a day to celebrate peace, where citizens take the initiative in planning and organizing peace events. That resonance of peace will stimulate collective civic action and help a culture of peace take root in the global society.
This is the first part of the Road to Peace! I will continue to post about my trip to Seoul in the future, so stay tuned. Let’s be messengers of peace together.
