‘A cry’ for peace

Any religion, racism and ideology could not hinder the participants’ passion for peace. Everyone was impressed by the fact that all people can gather together for a goal, and they were sure that peace can be accomplished by WARP.




-Emil Constantinescu/ Former president of Rumania/ Chairman of ICD

 “I was touched by heavenly culture, everyone should learn the things no one has not thought about.”
“We need a new culture for global security. We should improve cooperation dialogue and have a system to increase mutual trust. I was so touched when I saw heavenly culture which aims new culture of peace. That was what many researchers, scholars and politicians cannot realize. We have to spread and share that to help all people to learn that. For this, through picking a representative, everyone must be able to listen to that voice.”




-Antonio Ledesma/ Archbishop of Mindanao, Philippines

 “HWPL should spread heavenly culture ‘the strong light which makes us gather’ to all over the world.”
“HWPL is a strong light which guide us. That made people from different religions, ideology, race, culture, society and economy gather here for one goal. As Mr. Manhee Lee did in Mindanao, we should concord with each other to spread heavenly culture to all over the world. Heavenly culture should start from us.”




-Tawakkol Karman/ The youngest Noble peace prize winner

 “Believing a creator, we should have a religion if we really love peace.”
 “The cause of battles and wars belongs not to religion, but to extremists and religious leader who always have their own way in interpreting religions. If they really love peace, it is right for them to have one religions as chairman, Manhee Lee said because we believe one creator. I have never seen like this alliance that a great number of people have gathered together. I hope that many alliance like this would be generated a lot to share the insight of Mr.Lee with many non-governmental organization.




-Kgalema Motlanthe/ Vice president of South Africa

 “WARP is a great opportunity that every soul can come together.”
 “We could improve mutual understanding through WARP. We can make peace. Communication is important in achieving peace, and we can never make peace with the wars of religions. We should realize social disorders and some problems like that is due to religions. WARP is a great opportunity that every soul can come together.”




-Stjepan Mesic/ Former president of Croatia

 “Religious leaders should work together for peace, not exerting authority”
 “This WARP is the best chance which is able to make us come together and move toward communication for peace. Every religious leader have to work together for peace and security, not exerting their authority.”




-Gaudencio B. Rosales/ Cardinal ,of Manila Philippines

 “World peace, the most important thing in the whole history”
we get together in this place, WARP Summit to achieve world peace. There is peace in our hands. As a person, the best purpose is peace which is the most important thing in mankind history. But no love is no peace. First of all we should love one another as the word of God. 

-Bertie Ahern/ Former prime minister Ireland

 “It is easy to say peace but difficult to put into action”
 “This alliance that a lot of religious leader gather together and discuss about peace has never been and never will be. HWPL deserves to be praised. It is easy to say but difficult to put into action. But I think everything is possible because we can transcend race, religions, boundaries and ideology.”




-Giani Gurbachan Singh/ Sikhism  Representative of Golden Temple

 “Education which can overcome differences and resolve conflicts should be made“
 “Some people use religions as a tool of political terror. This is inexcusable, and we must not make the world with religious and cultural conflicts. Any mechanism of persecuting specific country or religion should go. Religious leaders should teach how to overcome differences between religions”

The most beautiful tree tunnels in the world

.
When could we believe the existence of God?
Many people give a testimony like a movie about reviving miraculously. But when we look at beautiful sceneries, we may realize the actual existence of God. When you see the beautiful landscape of the natural phenomenon that can’t be created with the power of man, we admire the workmanship of God who created everything at last. Although people planted and cultivated the wooden tunnels artificially, we admire that this is also the workmanship of God when we see them. We don’t create life, we just planted them.

Today, I would like to introduce awesome tree tunnels with the sunlight and wind coming through branches.

1. 'The Dark Hedges' in Northern Ireland (The Dark Hedges in Northern Ireland)
Beech Road made by Stewart Family in 1750
It became a world-class tourist attraction as forest grew larger. It is also famous for the filming location of "Game of Thrones".

2. Cherry road in Bonn, Germany (street in Bonn, Germany)

4. Jacarandas walk in South Africa
Pretoria, the administrative capital in South Africa is referred to as 'the Jacaranda City' because there had been planted 70,000 jacarandas.

 

5 Tunnel of Love in Ukraine (Tunnel of Love in Ukraine)
There is a place with legend if couples go to this forest trails by train and make their wishes, it comes true.
Wish of couples.. would be the one that we’ve all known. ^.-*
 

6. Street in Jerez in Jerez De La Frontera, Spain
Narrow path in the alley of wine shops in Jerez De La Frontera, Spain

7. maple tunnel in St. Louis, Oregon, U.S.A
This is a maple forest road in St. Louis, Oregon, United States.
Korea is in autumn now so that the trees would turn red soon like the picture below.
 

8. Tree Tunnel in Netherlands
Like walking through the road of life, it is an infinitely long, majestic tree tunnel.



I listed tunnels that stick in my mind for long and I’d really like to go later. I want to recommend these tunnels to those who can afford or want to go on a trip to countries in the pictures. If you’ve been there, I’d like to hear what you feel. 

Global peace activist

 

When I was surfing the internet, I saw the news about peace agreement in Mindanao, the Philippines, which had lasted for 40 years, by a messenger of peace who has traveled around the world 10 times.

The messenger of peace who has traveled the world 10 times?

I might be exhausted by just one flight, but who is this man?

And I know well about Mindanao. That is the territory where there are constant wars and conflicts.

However, how was it possible to get a peace agreement and end the wars in that island Mindanao? I was starting to wonder about him. 

 

Korea is separated by North Korea and South Korea. So there are many adults who desire unification. But, on the other hand, students usually have no interest in unification.

What was worse is that there are some children who don’t know the fact that North and South Korea belong to the same nation originally.

I think Korea will be a country that has big power in the global world, if Korea achieves to be unified. But some people are against to be unified. 

I really want Korea to be a peace country that has no relevance to war anymore. 

While thinking about peace I tried to find activists who have given their effort to peace.

Lincoln is one of my favorite and respectable people to me.

He was reared in a poor family. So, he couldn’t finish his school-life. But he became a self-educated lawyer and always stood by weak people and cheered them up.

 

When everybody regarded African-Americans as slave, and when South and North America were in conflict with each other because of the different ideology for slavery, President Lincoln led the civil war to victory and achieved Emancipation.

Peace activist Lincoln lived in a polite and earnest manner.

He brought about the cessation of bloody conflicts in the Philippines which had continued for 40 years and he’s leading a private peace movement group now.

I hope he leads Korea’s unification like President Lincoln who led the America’s Unification.

And I want Korea to be a boastful nation that can finally achieve reunification.
