PROGRESS: Has your organization seen
progress toward a culture of peace and nonviolence in your domain of
action and in your constituency during the first half of the Decade? |
Many
parents love their children, they give them food, clothes, love and
understanding. But others consider their children a burden. They don’t
love and understand them and more than this, they are violent with
them. Such an attitude towards a child can have undesired consequences:
in turn, this child becomes violent, irresponsible, and indifferent, he
lacks tolerance and dignity. Thus we realize how important it is for us
to forgive, to be non-violent with this child and, even if we don’t
have enough material possibilities, to offer him everything we can
afford. Let us be tolerant so that this silver ray could follow our
example and could become neither the most famous person, nor the most
intelligent or beautiful, but a real true man.
|
OBSTACLES: What are the most important obstacles that have prevented progress?
|
We
live in a world of indifference in which we don’t care about the
others, sometimes we even don’t care about ourselves. A world in which
selfishness overwhelmes us like in a floating scarf and gets deeply
into our mind and soul. Selfishness turns into envy then into hatred,
spite, which destroys us gradually. We look for people who might be
guilty for what happens to us. Thus we reach the most frightful enemy
of ours: violence. We stick to it in order not to feel loaded morally,
putting aside the sensibility. We get rid of everything what
characterized us: kindness, inner beauty, dignity. When seeing such a
person we wonder why he is like this . And if we try to give an answer
we come to a conclusion: this behaviour is the result of an
unhappy childhood.
|
ACTIONS: What actions have been
undertaken by your organization to promote a culture of peace and
nonviolence during the first half of the Decade?
|
Activities to overcome barriers and encourage respect for children’s rights.
|
ADVICE: What advice would you like to
give to the Secretary-General and the General Assembly to promote a
culture of peace and nonviolence during the second half of the Decade? |
We
all could try to become PEOPLE in case we haven’t already become,
showing tolerance and interest in children, helping those who are poor,
being happy for those who have everything they want and, moreover,
opening the gates of our souls for those who encountered only locked
hearts. Only in this way we can feel we are human beings for real.
|
PARTNERSHIPS: What partnerships and
networks does your organization participate in, thus strengthening the
global movement for a culture of peace? |
Part of the Life-Link Friendship-Schools network.
|
PLANS: What new engagements are
planned by your organization to promote a culture of peace and
nonviolence in the second half of the Decade (2005-2010)? |
