This book brings to life author Linda Sartor's peacekeeping and citizen diplomacy work from 2001 to 2012 when she traveled with several different peace and justice organizations to six war-torn countries: Israel/Palestine, Iraq, Sri Lanka, Iran, Afghanistan, and Bahrain. Linda was driven to take action, and protesting was not enough any more. Her stories are meant to inspire readers to follow their hearts even when fear is present, with the hope of changing these systems of domination--even if we do not get to witness the changes in our lifetimes..

it is personal, not preachy and describes why she felt strongly enough to take on this struggle. I got the most from her accounts of her internal dialogue. The conversations she had with herself testing and weighing her convictions, enabling her action plan and the forces that supported her decisions.In Afghanistan, Iraq, Palestine, Sri Lanka, she contributed to the inertia of peace and security with a few other global thinkers but she never elevates herself above forces she confronts either internal or external.Fear is everyone's burden and how she makes her way is very enlightening.. "Amazing and inspiring!" according to Deborah D. Park. This is an amazing and inspiring account of Sartor's journey, beginning with her decision to face her fears and follow her heart to take a stand against war as a reaction to terrorism. From 2002-2011, we follow her from Israel/Palestine, to Iraq, to Sri Lanka with Nonviolent Peaceforce (her longest stint of about 2 years), to Iran, to Afghanistan. She was with different organizations each place and learned different techniques of nonviolent protest and accompaniment. I recommend this book to everyone concerned about the mounting conflicts in our world and those wondering what we might do about them. And I love Linda's final message to us". Saving Lives photomom Amazing what can be accomplished by a few people dedicated to peace. Her stories of how lives may have been saved by easing tensions at the local level makes for interesting reading.
