Why Share Your Story?

It’s really easy to think of all the things that disrupt our sense of well-being these days. And somehow the more we talk, the less we feel heard. Can you agree that the state of our world is crying out for peace?

If your answer is yes! Yes! YES! we welcome you into our new community centered in LOVE, PEACE & STORIES. Share your personal experiences in making peace with common life challenges. Let’s see if, together, we can heal the separations and rediscover our interconnectedness.

STORY FORMS: Exercise your creativity! Your story can take the form of text, visual files or audio media (jpg/png/MP4).

Text (personal narrative, poetry) is submitted through our online form here.
