Thoughts

What inspired us to start Vote For Peace.

  1. We can only accomplish this together. But how do we find together? What is the first step?
  2. These days, we are confronted with global horror scenarios on a daily basis. What global plan can we set against this?
  3. Words have weight. Voices have weight. Photos have weight.
  4. Can we overcome the global challenges without peace as well?
  5. Your voice is like a raindrop on dry ground. Together we can make it rain.
  6. Everyone knew that it could not be done. Then others arrived, who didn’t know it could not be done and just did it.
  7. We are actually supposed to act together, but conflict and different interests prevent that.
  8. What will happen, when one day all humans speak with one voice?
  9. Peace encourages cooperation and thus solutions.
  10. Most people want peace. An invisible majority has little strength. A visible majority can change many things.
  11. To resolve global problems, many, many people must join in. But how can we reach all of them? How can we create a connection between all humans? The connection would need to be something simple - the lowest common denominator.
  12. When people argue, it rarely helps to dwell on the argument’s subject. It is better to focus your attention on the similarities.
  13. The division between humans is one of the biggest problems.
  14. The media are filled with negative images. Pictures of violence and crime that shake our trust in other humans. Don’t we need more positive images, to strengthen our trust again?
  15. Without trust, no society can function.
  16. There are almost 8 billion people on our planet. May the wish for peace be what unites us all? Let’s find out!
  17. Peace is life.
  18. All values are linked. When we strengthen one value, we automatically strengthen all other values too.
  19. More than 50% of humans can already be reached directly through the internet.
  20. Of course, people need to discuss and search for concrete solutions together. But we also need a place where we will not fight. Where we can come together in peace, connect, and find power for our task.
  21. The saying goes “Out of sight, out of mind.” So, let’s make the wish for peace and solutions permanently visible.
  22. If trust can be broken through negative experiences and images, couldn’t it be possible to rebuild trust with positive images and experiences
  23. These days, everything is global. Travelling, business, communication. When will we globalize peace?
  24. On February 18, 2021, NASA landed on Mars. Their motto: “Dare Mighty Things!” If that works, why doesn’t it work for peace
  25. A majority that stays silent cannot be heard.
  26. Your voice gives others hope and strength. That way, your positive contribution comes right back to you.
  27. Many people complain about a loss of values. Can we reestablish values through positive images?
  28. Conflict arises and grows when we only look at our differences, e.g., religion, nationality, culture, or skin color. Conflicts will be reduced when we become more aware of what we have in common.
  29. Together we can do it. The question is: “How do we come together? What is the connecting element and how can we give it strength?”
  30. We’re all globally connected - let’s make use of it!
  31. Climate change? Extinction of species? We need to talk! But how can 7.8 billion humans communicate? Could a vote be a form of communication?
  32. In our similarities lies the power of peace - in our differences lies the potential for conflict. Let’s concentrate more on our similarities.
  33. The more people vote, the more weight this voting has.
  34. How can you give a voice to the majority?
  35. Making similarities visible means building bridges.
  36. Does networking today make it possible to establish a global, critical mass that demands peace and unity?
