I've searched for it too and can't find it. I know P.E.A.C.E SCOOTER was inspired by what I read at that art exhibit. Julie, I saw that quote in a certain context, as the Instant Karma art exhibit.

I have to borrow in part from MLK. Peace is not the absence of tension; but the presence of balance in our lives. It's that balance that we feel when someone smiles at us from across the table as we share a meal... we experience a quiet moment that fills our heart with Hope for Humanity. Peace…

Peace--to me--is the absence of chaos. It--is not peace between nations, continental powers, political movements. My control over those is insignificant. Peace is you and me. It is a loving meeting of my mind and yours. It IS, in fact--love. It is thinking of you first, before me. It is caring, nurturing, supporting another. Peace and love are "action" words. I have experienced a huge amount of this love at home and away from home the past five weeks. I experienced that "peace which surpasses all understanding" while traveling and meeting people (scootering) through five states. On my final ride, the last 50 miles home, I was overwhelmed with the feeling, the knowledge, that I had been so loved in so many ways...accepted, tolerated, fed, "coffee'd", housed, and treated as an equal among equals, no matter what. Again, for me, "peace" and "love" are so closely related as I might think of the genetic togetherness of identical twins. The following quote sits on the desk of a long-passed friend of mine. It was meant as a definition of "Humility". As I read, it usually produces a benignancy, replacing immediately any disturbances which found their way into my heart. "Perpetual quietness of heart. It is to have no trouble. It is never to be fretted or vexed, irritable or sore; to wonder at nothing that is done to me, to feel nothing done against me. "It is to be at rest when nobody praises me, and when I am blamed or despised, it is to have a blessed home in myself where I can go in and shut the door and pray to my Father in secret and be at PEACE, as in a deep sea of CALMNESS, when all around and about is seeming trouble.

I cannot remember experiencing a more interesting, fun-filled, extended weekend of sharing and learning. You showed me what pleasure can be derived in meeting and chatting people from everywhere, and how easy it is when riding a scooter. I'll never be able to adequately thank you, Dear Alix, for all the kindnesses you so patiently showed me. And I always end my comments with one of your favorite words: PEACE!
