World peace just won't happen until we grow inner peace on an individual level. One person at a time. If you want to start building a better, kinder world from the inside out, here are four small ways to spread peace every single day. It's the best place to start.

What if forgiveness changed the past, how you see it in your mind and how you feel about it in your heart? What if it changed the future, by changing how you lived right now? Read these forgiveness quotes if you're ready to move forward with a greater focus on how *you* live.

When there’s love in the home, there’s peace in the mind. Use these house blessings to help you cultivate love, respect, peace, and happiness at home.

Grieving the loss of a loved one is, by far, the deepest pain I know. The void feels infinite, lonelier than any silence. There's hope, though, and a love that far outlasts what you've lost. If you want to love your way through these times, read this. It's about what you can never lose.

If you could use an extra dose of inspiration this week, read this collection of A Course in Miracles. They teach that returning to love is like coming home to yourself. That no matter what path you take in life, what's at the end of the road is the same: love. And that's who *you* are too. 

Helping others is one way to honor yourself. Loving yourself and loving each other is kind of the same thing. That’s because we’re connected on a deep level. Read these quotes about helping others and remember: even when you think your kindness goes unnoticed, it’s essential. It casts a ripple out into the world.

Try this loving kindness meditation when you feel disconnected from someone you love. Or when you can't let go of a grudge. Or when you're having a hard time forgiving yourself. It'll sweeten your whole life, one breath at a time, which is to say: you'll feel better, faster.

Sometimes, you have to let things go for the simple fact that they’re heavy. It takes a lot of energy to keep a grudge alive. What is forgiveness, then? It’s freedom, hope, peace, love. A gift of life... to yourself. When you forgive, you get your life back. Or rather, you get to make something new with it.
