Creating True Peace is both a profound work of spiritual guidance and a practical blueprint for peaceful inner change and global change. It is the Venerable Thich Nhat Hanh's answer to our deep-rooted crisis of violence and our feelings of helplessness, victimization, and fear. As a world-renowned writer, scholar, spiritual leader, and Zen Buddhist monk, Thich Nhat Hanh is one of the most visible, revered activists for peace and Engaged Buddhism -- the practice he created that combines mindful living and social action. Having lived through two wars in his native Vietnam, he works to prevent conflict of all kinds -- from the internal violence of individual thoughts to interpersonal and international aggression.
Now, in this new book, perhaps his most important work to date, Thich Nhat Hanh uses a beautiful blend of visionary insight, inspiring stories of peacemaking, and a combination of meditation practices and instruction to show us how to take Right Action. A book for people of all faiths, it is a magnum opus -- a compendium of peace practices that can help anyone practice nonviolent thought and behavior, even in the midst of world upheaval.
More than any of his previous books, Creating True Peace tells stories of Thich Nhat Hanh and his students practicing peace during wartime. These demonstrate that violence is an outmoded response we can no longer afford. The simple, but powerful daily actions and everyday interactions that Thich Nhat Hanh recommends can root out violence where it lives in our hearts and minds and help us discover the power to create peace at every level of life -- personal, family, neighborhood, community, state, nation, and world.
Whether dealing with extreme emotions and challenging situations or managing interpersonal and international conflicts, Thich Nhat Hanh relies on the 2,600-year-old traditional wisdom and scholarship of the Buddha, as well as other great scriptures. He teaches us to look more deeply into our thoughts and lives so that we can know what to do and what not to do to transform them into something better. With a combination of courage, sweetness, and candor, he tells us that we can make a difference; we are not helpless; we can create peace here and now. Creating True Peace shows us how.

Poor Quality for the Cost !!! Dissatisfied
Disappointed Durability. I love these heels they are very comfortable looks good with just about any color outfit . However, my heart ripped in pieces after 3 months with limited wear they began to lift and fall apart . I’m very dissatisfied with the cost & poor quality slippers I received. I wish I could actually returned it but couldn’t due to the 30 days return policy.

Steve Madden must have
Size: 7.5, Color: Black
You can’t go wrong with any Steve Madden shoe to be honest. These are sexy yet sturdy. Nice thin versatile heel. Strap length is good for any size ankle really

Very Good Item
Size: 8, Color: Gold
I recently purchased these Amazon Essentials gold flip-flops at the start of spring, hoping to find an affordable sandal for everyday wear. After wearing them consistently for a few weeks I’ve gotten a good sense of their overall quality and comfort. One of the biggest positives is their style. The gold color is simple making them easy to dress up or down. I’ve been able to pair them with everything from athletic wear to casual dresses, which makes them a great staple piece. They’re also very lightweight, which is perfect for warmer weather or packing for trips. However, there are a few areas that could be improved. While they are comfortable at first, they don’t provide much arch support, which can make longer walks a bit uncomfortable. After wearing them for extended periods, I noticed some slight soreness in my feet. Softer, more flexible straps from the start would also improve comfort right out of the box. For shoppers, I would recommend these flip-flops if you’re looking for a stylish, budget friendly option for light use rather than something for long distance walking. Overall, I’m happy with this purchase. These flip-flops are a great option for casual wear and offer good value for the price, as long as you know their limitations.

They fit true to size and have excellent traction, making them feel very secure and slip-resistant.
Size: 9.5 Wide, Color: Black White Snake Print
I would buy these sandals in every color. The sole is very sturdy and supportive, not flimsy at all, which makes them super comfortable for all-day wear. The thong strap is soft and doesn’t rub or hurt between my toes like some sandals do. They fit true to size and have excellent traction, making them feel very secure and slip-resistant while walking. Overall, these are stylish, comfortable, and surprisingly well-made for everyday use.

Pleasantly surprised by these nice flip flops
Size: 8 Wide, Color: Dusty Rose
I was pleasantly surprised by these flip flops. I wear an 8 in womens and they fit perfectly. I also have pretty wide feet and ordered a wide size and they fit perfectly that way too. They seem durable, are comfortable and wear nicely but I am disappointed that they already have 2 small spots where the material is wearing already. I will say I wear these a lot, nearly every day for a few hours at least, sometimes more, so maybe that's why they have the 2 spots of wear already. Overall I'm happy with these!
