Save us from the inevitability of hardship and heartbreak. In fact, we may cry more easily, but we will laugh more easily, too. Perhaps we are just more alive. Yet as we discover more joy, we can face suffering in a way that ennobles rather than embitters. We have hardship without becoming hard. We have heartbreak without being broken.
Joy subsumes happiness. Joy is the far greater thing. Ultimately our greatest joy is when we seek to do good for others. It’s how we are made. I mean we’re wired to be compassionate. We are wired to be caring for the other and generous to one another.
We are made for loving. If we don’t love, we will be like plants without water.
The mission of the Desmond Tutu Peace Foundation is to use Desmond Tutu's life and teachings to inspire young people to build a world of peace within themselves, peace between people, and peace among nations.
The Desmond Tutu Peace Foundation envisions a world in which everyone values human dignity and our interconnectedness. Real peace will prevail when there is a culture of peace in the USA and around the world. That culture originates in the hearts and minds of our youth, the future leaders and peace-makers of the world. Our programs are based on the teachings of Desmond Tutu who has dedicated his life to reshaping conversations about peace, equality, and forgiveness. The philosophy of Ubuntu guides us with its meaning of We are all connected. What affects one of us affects us all.
