About Me


Peace Pilgrim
1908 - 1981

From 1953 until she passed away in 1981, a silver haired woman calling herself only "Peace Pilgrim" walked more than 25,000 miles on a personal pilgrimage for peace. She vowed to remain a wanderer "until mankind has learned the way of peace," walking until given shelter and fasting until given food. In the course of her 28 year pilgrimage she touched the hearts, minds, and lives of thousands of individuals all across North America. Her message was both simple and profound. It continues to inspire people all over the world.

"This is the way of peace:
Overcome evil with good,
and falsehood with truth,
and hatred with love."
~ Peace Pilgrim

My Interests



There are people who come and go in our lives all the time. But very rarely, there is someone who leaves footprints on our heart, and we are never ever the same again.
