For those who have not been able to visit the gallery to see this awesome collection here are a couple of close up pics to encourage you to visit. The wairua (spiritual energy) created by these taonga (treasures) is deeply moving and definitely worth experiencing. https://www.artbythesea.co.nz/category/kemp-whanau-exhibition

✍️ Let there be peace on earth—and let it begin with me. Not with someone else. Not somewhere far away. Not when conditions are perfect or when the world finally changes. But here, now, with me.

Peace begins the moment we become mindful of our breath—that simple, sacred rhythm that connects us to the present moment. It begins when we bring awareness to our daily actions, to the way we move through the world, to the choices we make in each ordinary moment.

Let peace begin in the way I speak to myself when I make a mistake. In the breath I take before reacting. In the kindness I choose when patience feels difficult. In the forgiveness I offer when holding onto hurt feels easier.

Let it begin in my home, in the gentleness I bring to those closest to me. In my community, in the compassion I extend to neighbors and strangers alike. In my daily life, in every small choice to respond with understanding instead of judgment, with love instead of fear.

We often look outward, wishing the world would become more peaceful. But the truth is simpler and more challenging: the world becomes peaceful when we do. When each of us takes responsibility for the peace we carry—or fail to carry—in our own hearts.

One person practicing mindful breathing creates ripples. One person acting with awareness transforms their corner of the world. A family practicing peace becomes a refuge. A community practicing peace transforms a neighborhood. And slowly, quietly, persistently, the peace that begins with “me” spreads to “we,” and from “we” to all.

Let there be peace on earth. And let it begin with me—with my breath, my thoughts, my words, my actions, my presence in this world.

This is not passivity. This is the most active, courageous work we can do.

May you and all beings be well, happy, and at peace. 🙏
