I Was Praying for the World When the War Began

This morning, I was meditating. I was sending love to the world. I was trying to be part of the healing. And then I heard the news. The United States bombed Iran. Without Congressional approval. Without public debate. Without warning. I was told, once again, that peace does not matter. That love is not the language of power. That war can be launched in my name while I sleep. This cannot continue. We are now at the edge of a much wider war. Lives will be lost. Generations displaced. A future once possible—one of cooperation, restoration, and climate action—burned beneath the weight of empire and ego. I call on Congress to act immediately: • Stop this unauthorized military action. • Reclaim your Constitutional authority over war. • Demand a ceasefire. • Prioritize diplomacy before it is too late. I did not vote for this war. I do not consent to it. And I will not be silent. I woke in peace. And I will fight for it—with my words, with my voice, and with every breath I still have.
