Day of Nonviolence

Greetings,

Violent words and actions have been on the rise in our nation and communities. Especially as times get tough, we need to be working together, and supporting each other. Nonviolence provides the only path to harmony, positive solutions to our problems, and lasting change.

I ask that you please practice and help spread the tenants of nonviolence. This is something that starts with ourselves. It begins in our thoughts and words, and leads to our actions and interactions.

We are a culture built on violence. We teach our children to be violent, and we grow up adopting those philosophies. Yet, the only true way to be and bring about the change we all wish to see in our worlds is by nonviolence.

Let us follow the example of the likes of Gandhi and Martin Luther King.

By taking this pledge we would hope that there can be a National Day of Nonviolence, where way of life can be celebrated, promoted, and educated in a national arena.

Most sincerely.

[Your name]
