By Cecilia Belanger I truly, believe we are forget­ ting what peace is like, forget­ 'ting what quietude can do' for the jagged nerves possessed by so many in today's society. What is this something to­ ·wards which everyone is rushing such breakneck speed? ,No one knows. Few even stop to wonder. I Someone breaks a speed rec­ 'ord by two seconds. So what? Sales of some product reach un­ precedented figures. So what? i Against the madness of our mechanized days I prescribe a getaway to nature, to the splen­ did cliffs, ocean sands and ever­ changing sights· and sounds Of nur Atlantic coast. There is a quality to life by · the sea greatly desired by many. It fosters a sense of peace, and I

what good are all our' other accomplishments if we don't have peace on this planet? One. l2-year-old said, "All 1 . hear is talk about war and nu­ clear weapons. It's just war, war, war. Sometimes' it's hard to keep your, mind on studying or anything else. You don't know if you're going to be around." How frightening for children to hear constantly of the threat of war and to hear nothing of a peaceful nature, only that terri­ ble fear to take with 'them to bed at night. I heard another little child say "People are always fighting and' hollering!" , Why mOst people feel they have to out-shout and one-up each other? If. we are to disarm, we should begin in our hearts and discard the mentality that

says "if you·don't-agree with me, you are wrong." We are not here to remake each ottter. God does that., But we can let each other happen, allow people to pace themselves in their search. We needn't jet into spirituality. I receive many calls from par­ ents concerned that their child­ ren .have no religion in their lives. Remember, Christianity is a contact religion. Things happen. Somewhere, sometime, such young people will encounter the "salt." You can't push religion down their thoat any more than, you .can'force a child to eat spinach. But often those same children relish spinach as adults. Give young people time. Keep pray­ ing. Someone will pass the salt.
