Peace Pilgrim

February 9th, 2010

0210001022For twenty-eight years, Mildred Lisette Norman, Peace Pilgrim, walked across the nation several times to promote peace throughout the world. She began her campaign during the Korean War and her travels ended tragically in a car wreck in 1981, as she was being driven to a speaking engagement. Peace Pilgrim’s only possessions were the clothes she wore and the few items, which fit in her pockets. Her convictions of making a better world ran deep. What a role model she is for the world.

I received an email from Bruce Nichols of The Friends of Peace Pilgrim. Bruce was enthusiastic about The Kindness Bus Tour and its mission of traveling across the US, to promote kindness. It was an extreme honor to read in the email that there will now be a One Million Acts of Kindness link on the www.peacepilgrim.org website. Thank you from a fan of Peace Pilgrim.
