Enduring Peace Quotes, Gestures and Images From The CEO MARPS IN UGANDA

-
We asked our Founder and CEO to share some of his enduring peace gestures and images. Look at what choices we were given. Both in writing and in picture.  We do not want to caption anything lest it does not make it a surprise.

Some sources like the Webster dictionary, Cambridge and Oxford dictionaries define peace variously:

1. state of tranquility or quiet
2. freedom from civil disturbance 
3. state of security or order within a community provided for by law or custom
4.the normal, non-warring condition of a nation, group of nations, or the world.
5. (often initial capital letter) an agreement or treaty between warring or antagonistic nations, groups, etc., to end hostilities and abstain from further fighting or antagonism
6. a state of mutual harmony between people or groups, especially in personal relations

The CEO shared other sources and pointed out a link to consult at peace:

“Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.” 


“You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one. I hope someday you'll join us. And the world will live as one.” 


“You cannot find peace by avoiding life.” 


“An eye for an eye will only make the whole world blind.” 


“When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace.” 


“Peace cannot be kept by force; it can only be achieved by understanding.” 


“Peace comes from within.  Do not seek it without.” 


“You can have peace. Or you can have freedom. Don't ever count on having both at once.” 
― Robert A. Heinlein

We were introduced to Biblical quotes too:

"You will seek Me and find Me, WHEN YOU SEARCH FOR ME WITH ALL YOUR HEART ... For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, THOUGHTS OF PEACE and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope." (Jeremiah 29:13,11)

"love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you." (Injil, Matthew 5:44 NKJV)

From the Koran the CEO chose one word but shared this link 10-great-non-muslim-quotes-on-islam:

Salaam.

All in all, we hope this will give our readers two or three aspects about peace. The first is that we need to avail ourselves with balanced write ups on peace, secondly we need to be ready to face the meaning of peace, thirdly we must be ready to do something to keep peace. 

Remember Peace is the concept of harmony and the absence of hostility. In a behavioral sense, peace is a lack of conflict and freedom from fear of violence between individuals and heterogeneous social groups. For more read: visionofhumanity.org

Q And A Forum: Anal Douching - The What, How and Why

On a topic such as this it’s best to get right to it and dip your toes in…or a douche as it were. Specifically we are referring to the act of anal douching, its reasons, benefits and some good things to know and consider when cleaning the old pipes! It’s also always good to consider hygiene in any anal play whether it is in preparation or if you plan on making anal douching part of the sexual play itself. Since we are jumping right in it should be noted we will be touching on the dreaded subject of fecal matter. Don’t be skeert! It’s why anal douching is important and since its use is specific to one part of the anatomy both males and females have in common that the same rules apply for both sexes. In fact it should be noted that many people believe the same feminine hygienic products used to douche the vagina are good enough to clean the rectum but most of these products are not created to clean the rectum and contain ingredients that can leave the rectum in an unhealthy state (st...
