The Road to World Peace
Author: Gennaro Moccia
Publisher: Balboa Press
ISBN: 1452589720
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 56
Book Description
Spirituality changed my life. I obtained the peaceful mind I had lost as a child. I noticed how beautiful life really is and how complicated humans make it. Everybody seems to stress about situations they can't change, concern themselves with the ways other people live, and ridicule those who are different rather than accept them. The truth is that everybody is in need of acceptance. We were all born purely perfect until society's norms corrupted us and we felt that we needed to create a socially acceptable version of ourselves. It's clear that somebody can't act the way they did as a child throughout their whole lives without being disrespected. In reality people envy those who are happier than they are. Everybody labels everything and everyone else. There is not a certain way to do anything, and everybody is different. Morality is going down the drain, and people's perspectives are distorted by the media, the government, and the close-minded way of thinking we are led to follow as we grow up. After having silence in your mind it becomes apparent why people do the things they do. It is lucidity. There's so much more I want people to understand; I would love for everybody to be at peace with themselves. A collection of mind-opening revelations that will free the human soul and awaken the desire to spread peace and love.
