my thoughts on peace

Peace is freedom on the personal and political level.

Peace is living in contentment, responding to challenging situations and learning to make the best use of whatever limitations or lacking in resources.

Peace is living and accepting disciplines and boundaries.

Peace is having good governance in a country where citizens working together with political leaders to win-win situations. Peace is not conformity or living in terror.

Peace is discovering that man has the right to choose life over death.

Peace is free of conflicts within and without.

Peace is learning to accept differences and live with diversities.

Peace is when man can realize his/her potential to the fullest; the dare to open doors and explore horizons beyond.

obesity

It appears obesity is lowest in East Asia while a rise in percentile in other parts of the world.

Attribute to drinking Chinese tea or green tea without sugar and this beverage breaks down fats?


I'd experimented this in cooking -- putting a couple of chinese tea leaves in a pot of mutton, beef or duck soup and I see the fat dissolves or disappearing. Naturally this did not remove the fat altogether.
