Transformative. That's what the world would be attuned to if everyone were at peace. We would be grateful if we dared to choose diplomacy over conflict, which would foster a change in facing challenges like inequality, climate change, poverty, and little children whose lives are cut short even before they understand what life is about. We would be nations with no borders, no flags but one - the flag of the human race, and like the different species and creatures that survive amicably in the vast seas, our communities would thrive, free, fearless and in exchange embrace diversity. People who are adverse to a diverse race are often not superior but inferior mortals. They mostly lack the confidence to live amongst different cultures, learn different traditions and are ignorant of the beauty that inclusiveness brings to humanity. Resources will be shared, the world will be educated, and healthcare will be minimal since there will be less stress, hence fewer diseases. Innovation will become a joint venture with more brilliant minds working on technology and research, and increasing leverage for the human race. People who know they are appreciated will reflect happiness and, in return, project happiness. Happiness makes the world brighter. Harmony would resonate with the air we breathe in.
Oh Gosh! What was I thinking? There's no such thing as peace. I am dreaming in my sleep. I hope I wake up to reality someday. In the meantime, I cover myself with a blanket and go back to blissful sleep. Ignorance is bliss!
Have a great month of April, everyone.

Here's what's happening with my latest publication, From Skopje to India. It's a book I am proud to have written. I gained a lot of inspiration from the Taj Mahal love story, the British colonial era at an end, Mahatma Gandhi's visit to Agra for peaceful transition of power, and Varanasi, which I never knew in-depth until I did the research.
Have you read it yet? Here are some reviews that really made me happy. Here's the link: Please read the sample to know more, and immerse yourself in a world of discovery, acceptance and change. https://www.amazon.com/Skopje-India-Shobana-Gomes-ebook/dp/B0DXP4WB4D.
