Louise D’Arcy sings “A Peaceful Solution” in an emotional style pleading “Stop using all those bombs” and “Stop killing all our sons.” Her addition of these lyrics offer explicit suggestions as well as reminding us “Wars never saved no one” and that this message has been “sung before.”

Not only has this message been “sung before” but this message now strengthens an online community dispersed around the world. Musicians, videographers and activist video editors have revealed their common bond in peace and found mutual support.

This coming together of like-minded individuals coalescing around the idea of peace presents a clear alternative and proves the lie behind current government policies. More and more people feel the need to take control of their lives, communities and country.

These social networks also provide pathways for people to engage in commerce and organize to make their wishes manifest. Our strength lies in our numbers, our weakness has been imaginary differences and physical distances.

All petty and imaginary differences have become dwarfed by contemporary events. The Internet has largely overcome physical distances. Now we are relearning our common bonds.

In this unity around a peaceful resolution grows the seed of a peaceful revolution. No need to believe the lies that all change requires violence. Look around and see natural growth inevitably produces change.

Louise D’Arcy is one of those who has matured to understand the necessity of peace in our lifetime. She has lent her voice and talent to the cause of peace. She has helped the cause of peace to go forward.

The economy, climate and oil situations are still developing and we cannot see where they will lead. Now more that ever, the future of humanity and much of what we treasure in the natural world lies completely at our mercy.

Events conspire to force us to see the need in coming together in like-minded communities to prepare and support each other. Even as these communities form so will networks develop between them.

Farmers will grow non-food crops for oil and save the corn for human consumption. Eventually the wasteful practice of converting corn to methanol will no longer be pursued as its negative results become incontrovertible and unsupportable.

Biodiesel makes sense. Biofuel distilled from corn does not.

As conscious communities prosper and individuals take responsibility for managing domesticated animals’ reproduction rates the epidemic in animal cruelty will subside. Once people see the need for change, the absolute necessity for change and the inevitability of change issues that seem so implacable today will become resolved as a matter of course.

We will learn to live in harmony with the rest of life because that is the only pathway to future survival. Those who insist in living otherwise will perish.

I look forward to seeing more growth in the peaceful revolution.

A Peaceful Solution
(Willie Nelson Cover)
(Additional lyrics by Louise D’Arcy)

There’s a Peaceful Solution called a peace revolution
So lets take back America
There’s a war and we’re in it, but I know we can win it, if we take back America

Stop using all those bombs
Stop killing all our sons

Cause there’s a Peaceful solution called a peace revolution
So lets take back America
There’s a war and we’re in it but I know we can win it
If we take back America

Wars never saved no one
Where’s those lessons we have sung before
Make Love not War

There’s a Peaceful Solution called a peace revolution
So lets take back America
There’s a dream so believe it, now get ready to recieve it
So lets take back America
When we take back America
We’ll bring PEACE back…America!!

To me Peace is both the journey and the destination.

I think every single person on this earth has something to offer there fellow man, we are all a piece of the puzzle, but sometimes people forget either there own divinity or the divinity of others…we are confused by the world and where we stand in it…

compassion, communication and understanding I feel is the key to a better future.

What better way to spread the word of Peace then through music, perhaps the one thing in this world that goes straight to the heart to all who listen.

It’s an honor to contribute to Willie Nelson’s vision for a better world.
