“Only peace can save the world and only love can create a liveable earth!”

The Youth interns at Sola Peace Community Center discussed our ideas and thoughts on what Peace and Love mean to us as we approached Valentine’s Day.
The youth interns began by sharing that love for them means having a relationship with someone you can be yourself with, caring for someone unconditionally, and having a special bond with individuals. They then shared what peace means to them. Peace meant a calm self, relaxed, and happy feeling. Youth interns were then asked how they think love and peace correlate to one another. The group shared that peace and love are related so that everyone can be taken care of within a relationship (friends, family, and loved ones). Peace and love is the ability to be able to understand and emphasize with someone you care about.
For me, Blanca, College Intern with SOLA Community Peace Center, Love and Peace correlate to one another because with a peaceful foundation of respect, calmness, and kindness, love can develop and support the foundation of any relationship.
