Promises Of Peace

P

Are a dime a dozen. Well, really they’re usually a lot more expensive than a dime.

Want to live a more peaceful and full life? Buy this product. Upgrade to this device. Visit this exotic location. Take this course. Eat this. Drink that.

It’s all a sham knock-off of real peace. It’s a peace designed to break down within a certain amount of time so that you’ll have to show up again for the next model. Which is why a promise from nearly two thousand years ago still carries weight:

Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give it to you as the world gives.
