Peace is the Key


Like Martin Luther King JR. delivered his speech “I have a Dream” Like Gandhi marched through Dandi collecting salt with thousand of followers against the British Sacrificed their life for something that they believed it was right Yet, people still doubted them…not believing in what they called “Justice” It was peace that they were fighting for Doing things that they believed it was right, sacrificed their own life for the people’s rights, yet, the things they have done still wasn’t considered right… Their action doesn’t have to involve violent, YES!! It was a success!! The reverend Martin Luther king JR. and the number one political leader, Gandhi had taught me the meaning of peace The reason why everyone is gentle with one another, giving respect to one another, and of course valued and cared for one another Peace for me is everything, without peace, the world would be a disaster Peace is the reason why I’m still surviving today, YES!!!, I said it, it is a part of my surviving skills I used to be the type of kid that would always resolve my problems though violent Either at the house, at school, or at the park But I learned that violent does not resolve everything Peace had made me evolve from a little kid with no respect to an open minded teenager with leadership skills and an outgoing personality It is peace that transformed me into a new person, YES!!! it is IT!!!
