Let Peace Begin With You

Good Day everyone.
Did you have a fun weekend? Did you learn something new or do anything special? Me (Sunrae), Ms, Mona and her family visited the grand opening of a Buddism Community Center. Buddism is a type of religion. One of the thing they believe is that all people can live peacefully and happy together.

They had a display explaining what passive violence was. That means people do things to hurt each other in a quiet way. It is when another person says unkind words, or try to make another person do something they don't want to do,like being bullied. It is also when another person doesn't want to sit next to another person and do mean things to their property. So you see violence can be done without physically hitting another person.

Today if you get angry or frustrated with something some one has done or said, stop and think; PEACE BEGINS WITH ME because I AM PEACEFUL

THOUGHT FOR TODAY
Believe in miracles, they do happen. YOU just have to believe.



CREATIVE ACTIVITY
It's apple season

Let's make apple sauce



Ingredients:

2 small red apples

2 tbsp (table spoon) lemon juice

2 tsp (teaspoon) sugar

2 pinches of cinnamon

Directions:
1-Peel apples and cut them into small pieces.

Throw away the cores.

2-Put the apple pieces and lemon juice into a blender or food processor.


3-Blend until the mixture is very smooth.


4-Pour the mixture into two small bowls and stir in the sugar and cinnamon.

Enjoy

Options:Use honey instead of sugar

Slow cook the mixture in a small pot

Add raisins

You can make pear sauce the same way


GUESS WHAT
If you put a white sock in a cup of tea, the sock will turn light brown.

I am firm believer that before we can look for peace, love, or joy outside ourselves we must first find it within. Blessings to you and yours.
