“…the world is all messed up. The nation is sick. Trouble is in the land; confusion all around…. But I know, somehow, that only when it is dark enough, can you see the stars.”

Martin Luther King Jr., "I've Been to the Mountaintop" (speech, Memphis, Tennessee, April 3, 1968)

And a prayer for this MLK Day:

Teach us again, O God
To dream.
That even In the depths of darkness
Our eyes may see your light
Our hearts may be your light
Communities of stars ablaze

May we dare to dream
For love that feels so far away
For radiating light close enough to touch
Brave enough to shine
Strong enough to transform our shared darkness
Into brilliant compassionate love

May blazing stars shine brightly in our darkness
Lighting a way to love.
Amen

Seek solace and strength with your faith tradition, whichever tradition it may be. Use its sacred stories to guide your actions, your prayers, your heart, and soul.

As for Christians, a good place to start is with Luke 10:25-28, the two greatest commandments--to love God with all your heart, soul, strength, and mind and to love your neighbor as yourself.

And who is our neighbor?
Jesus then shares a story: "A man was going from Jerusalem to Jericho..." Accosted by robbers, he was stripped, beaten, and left for dead on the roadside. People, including authority figures, passed by without stopping.

Finally a foreigner, traveling through this country where he was despised, stopped, took care of the man's wounds, took him to an inn to recover, and gave money to the innkeeper to take care of the wounded man until the foreigner would return.

Who was the neighbor?
The person who showed mercy. (from Luke 10:29-37)

So we keep walking. Through mud and sunshine, through crowds and solitude, through roads that are easy and roads that test us.

Because peace is not conditional. It is a choice.

And it shines brightest not when everything is perfect, but when we choose to carry it forward anyway.

✍️ Peace on the Silent Road - Sometimes, the road we walk is not lined with crowds or filled with welcoming voices. Sometimes, it is just us, the silence, and the path ahead.

Yesterday, we walked on a red clay road—wet from recent rain, muddy beneath our feet, with no one watching, no one waiting to greet us. Just quiet earth and open sky.
But even there, especially there, peace was still shining.

Because peace does not depend on applause or recognition. It does not require witnesses or perfect conditions. It does not fade when the road becomes difficult or when we walk alone through the mud.
Peace walks with us in the silent moments just as much as in the celebrated ones. It is there in the steady rhythm of our steps, in the breath we take while navigating slippery ground, in the choice to keep moving forward even when no one is watching.

The world may not always see our journey. The path may not always be smooth or clear. But the work of cultivating peace continues—in the quiet, in the challenge, in the simple act of placing one foot in front of the other, again and again.

Yesterday’s muddy road told us this: peace is not about where we walk or who sees us walking. It is about what we carry inside, what we nurture within ourselves, what we choose to be regardless of circumstances.

So we keep walking. Through mud and sunshine, through crowds and solitude, through roads that are easy and roads that test us. Because peace is not conditional. It is a choice. And it shines brightest not when everything is perfect, but when we choose to carry it forward anyway.

May you and all beings be well, happy, and at peace.
