--Peace Up, Peace Down salutes those who are
working to bring about peace in our world and shakes its proverbial head at those
who are doing just the opposite. Peace Up, Peace Down is a weekly feature
on Joseph Palko's 10
Million Steps for Peace blog.--
Peace Up!
Mark
Kielburge and Craig
Kielburger for authoring the book Me
to We: Turning Self-Help on its Head, which encourages people to think we and pass
it on.
The brilliance of this book can be summed up in one of its best lines: "When we stop
competing against each other and start cooperating, we strengthen the community to
which each of us belongs." What else needs to be said? A peaceful world needs
to be a cooperative world - that's the simple fact. This book does a great job of
driving that point home and illustrating how one can begin changing their me-focus to
a we-focus.
Good, good stuff. Peace. Out.
