Peace Shopping

Shopping Peace Today, a thought came to me when I was enjoying sunshine in my backyard. “Shopping peace” is the title that came to me. In this world of chaos where we can buy everything but peace. Why are there no shops of  PEACE?.. Why is there no one who can give us PEACE? Weird questions , I know, I think everyone in this world is involved with none. This illusion which seems real is one of the fool’s paradise. Sometimes, depressing but still hoping that someday I will shop “PEACE”. Chaotic mind struggling to achieve a peaceful state. But difficult to get, so thought of an easy way of just stepping out and buying it. Weird indeed!! With this curious thought, I went on the Internet to shop for peace. Surprisingly, I got to the PEACE STORE. This is the place where I can buy things and at the same time connect to people. I loved the idea behind this store which is located in Key West. It emphasizes on peace and has the intent to deny hatred , violence and anything that divides people. Their manifesto inspired me. Then I came across another one which says “Shop Peace to spread Peace”. Another motivating one to look up to. Their ™ is “ May Peace Prevail on Earth International”. After browsing sites and spending a good amount of time I got answers to my weird questions. Yes, there are “Peace Stores”. Leaving aside what is being said so far, it is the demand of the time to practice means that can bring peace to our souls. We are all under the feeling of constant fear and anxiety. The fear of the unknown, what holds  in the future? Likewise many questions keep knocking back and forth making us restless. The only last resort to all the problems is the “ Supreme God”. Complete surrender with no doubt is the answer to everything. My curiosity about peace shopping today enriched me with the work of people who are like the torch of inspiration amidst the haywire.
