Journalism that propelled me into blogging

by Dushiyanthini Kanagasabapathipillai

My blog is a non-partisan site with diverse views. It is dedicated to the promotion of ethical journalism—a conscious decision on my part. It captures conflict, culture, events, nature, peace, people, tradition, and other subjects, in articles and photos. I travelled solo to the war zone to capture images—a first for a Tamil woman journalist in Sri Lanka.

Sign in Tamil Says: If Jesus is Peace, the peace of Christmas is Christ’s own peace. And Christ has drawn a clear distinction between his peace and that of the world:

“My peace I give unto you, not as the world gives, but my peace I give unto you”(John.14: 27).

The Peace that Jesus offers is drawn out of his self-emptying (kenosis), a love poured on human race right from his incarnation to crucifixion. [Courtesy: The Indian Catholic]
