"How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good," Isaiah 52:7
Research studies on energy suggest that each of has an energy we bring to any situation, an energy that affects the other people in the situation. In my life I have noticed that there are people who make a bad situation better, and there are people who make a bad situation worse. It may be important for us to consider which kind of person we are. A service person once said of a person dear to me that "she felt better after being around this person." That person is clearly one who brings good energy into a situation. What are some ways to be a conveyor of peace? Calmness, equanimity, charity, nonjudgment are all qualities to practice to be a conveyor of peace to ourselves and those around us. It is quite possible that the well-known words to a song, "What the world needs now is peace," may be one of the most important things we can contribute to any situation.
