Love is not just a four letter word, this word is extremely powerful; I think it is THE most powerful term in the world. It is a source of positive energy.It has THE POWER to shatter the negative energy and defeat it. Evil = darkness. Love = light. Love and peace are the only keys. Peace describes a society or a relationship that is operating harmoniously and without violent conflict.

I agree. Love in itself is powerful that you can achieve peace with it. If we could all learn to love not just our neighbors but even those who hold different beliefs from us then we are well on our way to achieving real peace.

Well said. I agree with what you said about love and peace being the only keys. Despite all the conflict that I hear on the news, people’s random acts of kindness give me hope.

I mean love and peace is companions.Because when we love each other peace comes automatically.Love is the important thing in this world.If we love somebody we can do everything for them.But if we hate somebody peacefulness is not there.Without love and peace nobody can live in this world.Our jesus christ said one of the commandment “LOVE EACH OTHER”.
When we take a film love and peace is included.Love is different for everybody.Parents love is different from others.Main feature of the family is love.Even animals is also having love.one of the best love i heard is that friends love.I am really lucky to have such a lovely friend to me.She sacrifices a lot to me.Love didn’t expect anything from us.so when we love each other peace automatically comes to us.There is no fighting will happen.Also we should love each and every nation.So that peaceful things will happen.Nowadays more countries are fighting with each other.By fighting what we will get,only loss.So we should love every countries also.

As the song goes, “All we need is love…”. I couldn’t agree more. Everything starts with love. If we have it for others, even for those we don’t understand, then we’re well on our way to finding the peace that this world needs.

“Love is a temporary madness. It erupts like an earthquake and then subsides. And when it subsides you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots have become so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the promulgation of promises of eternal passion. That is just being “in love” which any of us can convince ourselves we are. Love itself is what is left over when being in love has burned away, and this is both an art and a fortunate accident. Your mother and I had it, we had roots that grew towards each other underground, and when all the pretty blossoms had fallen from our branches we found that we were one tree and not two.”
-St. Augustine

“Love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love.
There’s nothing you can do that can’t be done.
Nothing you can sing that can’t be sung.
Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game
It’s easy.
There’s nothing you can make that can’t be made.
No one you can save that can’t be saved.
Nothing you can do but you can learn how to be you
in time – It’s easy.

All you need is love, all you need is love,….”

Lennon/McCartney

Easily one of my most favorite songs of all time.

Love is an eternal feeling that knows no boundaries and is devoted to someone. Love is when souls are involved without a condition. Peace is subjective in nature and purely dependent on individual’s perspective. For some, it can relate to satisfaction and tension free mind; while for others, it could mean no violence and living in perfect harmony.

This is a very good initiative to spread peace and love. I think just wearing T-shirt alone is not enough to spread peace and love. We must try to imbibe love in the minds of people by teaching them about the consequences of hatred and violence. Every human being is born innocent,only the society is responsible for any one becoming violent. So we all must unite together to promote peace and love. Thanks.

Peace, which is the word always liked by all the people at all the times. But it is not easy to have a peaceful and lovable society at all the times. What is reason?.The only answer is the minds of human beings are not same and good at all the times. Why?
The men and women are affected by various incidents in their daily life. When those are based on love and peace, no problem will be there.But not like that, humans are really felt in the sorrows. So the way for peace and love is spreading them by education to all.

Every living being needs love and want to live with peace. Love is life. Not only human beings but animals, birds, plants and trees,in fact everything in this universe grows and flourishes when it gets love. The world is full of hatred and only love can save us from the distruction. Love doesn’t needs words for expression and even doesn’t cost a penny. The actions of helping a poor, saving an animal from dying, adopting a child or giving charity shows your love towards nature and socety.

Too much love will kill you
Just as sure as none at all
It’ll drain the power that’s in you
Make you plead and scream and crawl
And the pain will make you crazy
You’re the victim of your crime
Too much love will kill you
Every time
Too much love will kill you
It’ll make your life a lie
Yes, too much love will kill you
And you won’t understand why
You’d give your life, you’d sell your soul
But here it comes again
Too much love will kill you
In the end…

That logo design is smooth on that shirt you’re wearing!

Love the message but I fear these guys aren’t having the impact they could be having on the actual outcome they profess to be reaching towards.

“Peace and Love” is reaaaaalllllllly abstract and fuzzy and unclear.

People and money gravitate to specificity of a problem being handled in a set amount of time – a due date. That’s what’s moves people to action, when they can see a picture being realized.

Peace and love being spread ain’t that. Peace and love being spread one community at a time starting with a 46% drop in arrests for violent crimes in a certain city is moving in the right direction.

Lack of a compelling, inspirational purpose AND a total focus on “How cool we are at PAL campaign are” instead of “How cool our current, specific community peace project is”. will lead to their fizzing out. Internally and in the market.

Think about how much different things would’ve been if Martin Luther King or Gandhi just preached peace and love instead of focusing on peace and love towards the eradication of a specific injustice.

I hope these guys go on to do great things, but as of now, I don’t think they’re maximizing their potential.
