Today is Veterans Day and I wish all veterans a day of peace and satisfaction. I wish none of you would have had anything to do with war -- with training for it, experiencing it, and being forever altered -- physically, mentally, emotional and spiritually -- by it. Think of the enormous amounts of lives, money, energy and resources lost in order to fight with each other. I know it's hard to imagine life without war, but why is that the case? Perhaps, we should start trying to imagine it, and maybe, someday, we might get closer to living in such a world.
