This heartfelt TED Talk explores the true meaning of peace beyond war and conflict. Inspired by a visit to Hiroshima and personal reflections, the speaker shows how peace isn’t just silence—it’s built through kindness, forgiveness, and everyday courageous acts that can heal and unite. Through relatable stories and thoughtful insights, the talk encourages us all to choose peace daily with simple but powerful actions. I am an 11-year-old with a big heart and a vibrant imagination. An avid reader, a curious learner, and a passionate artist, I truly believe that creativity can be a powerful voice for peace. Whether I’m holding a paintbrush or exploring a new idea, I dream of making the world a better place—one thoughtful stroke and one kind word at a time. Through my art and storytelling, I hope to inspire others to find beauty in diversity, hope in challenges, and strength in every young voice. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
