The unseen victories

I heard an interview with Beatrice Fihn, former head of ICAN and recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize.

With all the misery in the world, it’s easy to think peace work is pointless. Beatrice said:

“Think of all the weapons that have never been used.”

Without those who fought for peace, the world would be far worse.

We can’t give up just because it feels futile.

Keep working for peace. Protect the environment. Fight injustice. Stand up for equality.

It matters.

History shows how far we’ve come, even if headlines make it seem otherwise. The same goes for our personal lives. Over time, progress becomes clear.

Never give up.
