Hello. Good Morning folks. This is a commentary on the article of the same title from Mr. Bart Breen.
People are divergent thus capable of being a peacemaker, a peacekeeper and co-dependent all at the same time.
A peacemaker is a person who initiates peace in a chaotic place.
A peacekeeper is a person who maintains peace in a peaceful place.
We are co-dependent to each other regardless of age, class etcetera because we have an eco-system for healthy bio-diversity or else we stagnate. No man is an island.
People will have different views and mindset.
Case in point is Kim Jae-youn who wrote a letter about the Philippines. The korean visited the Bilibid prison because he is a peacemaker. I seen the prisons only on television and videos. So we will have a different view already. I guess I am a peacekeeper. As of yet.
What is the extent of violence I saw. I seen a man dying of bullet wounds in a sidewalk in Paranaque. I seen two angry drivers go side by side when one driver cuts the way of another driver. They raced metal to metal to say a hundred meter stretch. I was inside the FX taxi while the other vehicle is a jeepney. I seen an angry driver pull out a steel pipe and attacks another driver because of another traffic altercation. I seen a rumble between one student versus a group of four fraternity boys. I seen several rumbles in this neighborhood. Nothing serious, just ego-driven stand-offs. I see a husband and wife who frequently have a shouting match usually when there is a celebration here meaning booze.
However I also see a lot of good things about the Philippines because we have government and religions that maintains the peace. Here is a good soil. As a whole it is peaceful here. What is lacking is the strictest implementation of peacekeeping. We have the laws and values but we need tons of discipline.
But it is not the same for all localities. In Mindanao, from the news I have seen is quite problematic so we need peacemakers in there to help our Muslim brothers and sisters. And all the people there of course.

Matthew 5When you are a good person, you will initiate peace thus it brings you love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness and faith when you change people for the better.
9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
Galatians 5
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
Meanwhile if you are an evil person, it will show in your actions and products. You will not teach other people because there is hatred and enviousness in your heart that you will be surpassed in knowledge and fame.
Galatians 5
19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, 20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, 21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
