The Heart of a Mother
We can all relate to the heart of a
mother, the loving look in her eyes, the protective questions concerning where you
are and even the food provided upon your return home, just when you needed it the
most.
What makes
that love special?
I think
about the times when I have had trouble and how I so easily remember to go back
to the one who loves me the most, love that endures and never judges. From this
I feel such peace, such security. I feel I am home.
They say home is where the heart is.
What about
the well known Mother's around the world?
How do we recognise their love and the persistent message they carry surrounding peace?

Firstly I am reminded of Mother Teresa and her humble proclamation of love and peace.
In her own words,
‘’Let us not use bombs and guns to overcome the world. Let us use love and compassion…
..Peace begins with a smile. Smile five times a day at someone you don't really want to smile at; do it for peace. Let us radiate the peace of God and so light His light and extinguish in the world and in the hearts of all men all hatred and love for power.Today, if we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other-that man, that woman, that child is my brother or my sister.’’
It would be improper to not consider the likes of Jane Addams, who fought for social reform born out of a self-renouncing love, inspired by her Christian belief.
Jane Addams believed war as a cataclysm that destabilised human kindness, solidarity, civic friendship, and caused families worldwide to struggle.
The love that Jane showed through her unwavering commitment to social improvement led to her becoming the first American woman to be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.
What about Janet Bloomfield who had the drive and vision to push for a nuclear free world and was active in the anti-nuclear movement since 1981.
Courageous women such as these and many more, lay a legacy for our generation to take up the mantle of peace and actively work towards a hopeful future.
Today, we are privileged to live in a time when we can witness Mother of peace, Chairwoman, Kim Nam Hee of IWPG, an international womens peace movement; who actively works alongside Chairman Man Hee Lee of Heavenly Culture, World Peace, Restoration of Light (HWPL) to proclaim World peace and enact an international law for the cessation of War.
Chairman Kim Nam Hee, leads the International Womens Peace Group (IWPG) with the philosophy that, behind every great world leader there has been a great mother, demonstrating the very nature of all mothers – providing love and healing for their families. Thus, IWPG was created and carries out works with the loving heart of a mother, in the hope that World Peace would be established with this same heart.
Ms Kim Nam Hee says,
“We need to forgive each other and find happiness.”
Her self-effacing demonstration, of love and dedication of securing a peaceful future for us, living at this time, can only display a mother’s heart that encompasses the world.
Ms Kim Nam Hee reacted to the Nigerian kidnapping with a heart-felt plea to surrender all and work together in the name of peace.
“We can’t see that as an isolated incident in a foreign land, people have to be more aware so we can prevent future violence and tragedy’’.
Peace is hard to visualise for those who do not really desire peace in their heart.
Any human who truly wants something will give up everything to get it.
It's impressive words.
