Peace Book
Posted by Malia Moriarty on August 27, 2007 - 3:27pm.
If you are interested, I want to start passing around a notebook. I want to mail it out and include anything you want in it-whether it's pieces you've written, or a letter you want to write-I want it to include ONLY positive things.

I don't quite know how I will do this, but I think it would be interesting to bring back the beautiful art of handwriting letters, stories, poems-whatever, and sharing them with others. I figured everyone can have a sheet (one page, front & back) of the book to write what they please then pass it on to someone else. I will include the addresses inside the book for people to send to someone else that they don't know. I feel that this will help others make friends and start beautiful long-distance friendships.

I want some ideas and feedback on this and if you think it is a good idea.

Things you can include in the book:

*Poems
*Short Stories
*Blurbs about you
*Compliment Letters
*Pictures
*Drawings/paintings
*Articles
*Lyrics
*Quotes
*Words of wisdom
*Fun uplifting things
*Words of nothing
*Games
*Goals/Life list
*Journal entries
*Stories on acts of kindness
*Anything you want!  This book doesn't have to be for people who are talented in writing!

Please share your ideas and if you want in, give me your address. I plan on starting the book today with my story and some rules inside the book as to what not to write and what to write.

After it is done, I want it sent back to me so that I can type it all up and print it and sent it out to everyone involved (or anyone that isn't involved and still wants a copy)

So let me know your ideas and if you're interested!

*Love & Peace*

Neat idea

What might be fun is to put in the instructions that the person has to pass it on to someone they know in a different state or even a different country! Now that might be fun to see what you got back!

I'm Kind of doing that

That's kind of what I'm doing.  I have a list of people to send it to, but they can add someone to that list and send it to them instead.  I want it to be open when it comes to sending, I just want to make sure it hits every person on the list that I have made (7 people so far).  I think this would be great for inspiration and lifting people's spirits, which is why I'm doing it.

Hey I had experience this book when I was in the 8th grade, but it wasn’t inspiring. It was more of a burn book like in the teen movie, Mean Girls, but this was WAY before it even came out. I am glad you are putting a book together! Sounds great! When are you planning to send this book out? Because I want in, sounds like fun!

Is there some sort of them to your project?  What inspired you to try and do this?  Can my children get involved?
