When can we really celebrate peace in our world?

Today we celebrate the end of a terrible world war. We are still at war in various parts of our world. War is terrible, not only for the soldiers who are fighting, but for all the innocent families who are often in the path of destructive warfare. We must continue to pray for peace in our war-torn world.

I chose this picture after looking at some of the World War II photos that brought the reality of war back and I felt that I needed to look for a peaceful scene.
