Doves in the sky bring peace, clean the soiled land by removing bullets and mines left over from war, so that there will be no war – only peace on earth."Peace is love and mutual giving. starting from ourselves to our neighbors, our environment, animals, plants, and the universe. The best leaders think about the people of the world, not their own ego. Because life is a gift from God, live the day and live it with love."
