You can print out this 11" X 8.5" form, and use it to write your wish for peace on one strip of the four strips, or as many as you like. Or make your own strips (2.75" wide X 8.5" long). Each strip will be taped together and wound around the central shaft located inside the peace wheel.

A meaningful peace statement expresses the benefits of turning the peace wheel, of sending out your wish for peace in a way that others can receive the wish. A peace statement can include forgiveness, a wish for what you want, and seeds for the future (like the peace statements shown here, that were written by students from Elko, Nevada, USA).
