An Easy Route to Peace
Why is our society always in a state of boil? A small perturbation can lead to a world war, which could exterminate the race itself. I think humans were always aware of this, since we always have a few who are strong advocates of peace, who keep prescribing various do’s and don’ts. In fact these restrictions yield nothing but making life a bit more uncomfortable.
Is there a better way?

Introduction
I think, since long, humans are aware of the tumultuous nature of their society and the impending danger arising out of it, which could result in extermination of the race itself. Our history is in fact a chronological account of the damages we human race have inflicted on human race itself, and the collateral ruins, it caused. As time go forward, more and more people are waking up to this as a real possibility. And to counter this, we always have many philosophers and other public figures who advocate the need to cultivate impeccable personal qualities, peace, and harmony, in a society. Such ones keep prescribing various do’s and don’ts in this regard, which effectively yield nothing but making life a bit more uncomfortable for all. And it hasn’t changed a bit, ever since.
Commotion keep on occurring, at all times, and for various reasons. Our reaction also vary.
We overlook it, or see it as a celebration, whenever the reason is a dear one. Like winning a coveted trophy, or electing, one who champions what is close to us. We despise it, call it unruly behavior and urge strong action, when it is truly unworthy and dangerous, is a real one, and is directed on us. Like a hijack. But we take a philosophic view, close our eyes, and talk of commotion as a universal part of life, in all other cases, whether the reason is a worthy one or not. Like disruption of a public service, closing a road for religious events or ceremonies, or organized elimination of those promoting a progressive view.
In fact, in all such instances, we need to work with the same tempo, if commotion is to be brought to an end.
Or look for some activities or a way of conduct, that can make peace prevail. And then fashion our life and living around those.
