About this Quote

This quote by Peace Pilgrim speaks with the concept that inner peace is not something that can be discovered through self-centeredness, but rather through working for the advantage of the entire human family. She is recommending that we need to focus our efforts on helping others, rather than simply ourselves. This might imply anything from offering in our local neighborhood, to advocating for social justice, to merely being kind to those around us. By doing this, we can create a better world for everyone, and in turn, discover our own inner peace. Peace Pilgrim's quote is a pointer that we are all connected, and that our actions have an impact on the world around us. It is a call to action to interact to produce a better future for all.
