Everyone wants to live in a peaceful environment. Peaceful environments can only be created through positive interaction and behaviors amongst people. Peaceful interaction can create opportunities for people to understand themselves, preventing barriers which ordinarily will exist if there is no contact or interaction. Peaceful behaviors, interactions and actions can be taught and socialized and reinforced within any society through different ways of education.
