Paix;

I've come to notice recently that people are wearing peace signs quite often.
If its not a ring, its a necklace, or quite possibly just a cute ordinary t-shirt.
Its everywhere.
Target.
Wal-mart.
Hollister.
Claires.
Earrings.
Bags.
Socks.
bracelets.
Its not just a word people, its a way of life.
The thing about peace is that it needs to be universal.
Wake up children.
This isn't just a fashion trend, its a lifestyle.
If you're going to sport the symbol, you've got to live the symbol.
It's not just a word we can place on a handbag, or a symbol that we can make into a pair of earrings and sport it around because it looks great or because Paris Hilton wears it too.
The word symbolizes global change and hope for a better posture of the world, not just america.
That's where the universal bit comes in.
Its not just peace here.
its everywhere.
Paix.Pace.Paz.Peace.

I'm bothered by the trend. If you know what you're sporting then by all means wear it all over, but if you don't understand the concept of a peaceful world then please put that handbag down.
