“Perspective: The Golden Rule” by David Meakes

“The Golden Rule is woven through the narrative to illustrate [its] potential . . . in life generally and the elimination of war.” - David Meakes, Author

To prove that war brings no more than the pain of loss and trauma, American veteran David Meakes delivers a message of peace in his memoir, “Perspective: The Golden Rule.”

Divided in six parts, Perspective’s first part retells the author’s early years during the Great Depression. The second and third parts discuss religion and politics, war, peace, and social conditions. His education and service in WWII make up the fourth part. The last two parts contain Meakes’s thoughts on preventing war, his travels around the globe, and his view on the country’s previous leaders and reformers.

“The Golden Rule is woven through the narrative to illustrate [its] potential . . . in life generally and the elimination of war,” Meakes says. He reveals that his experiences, especially the painful ones, led him to understand the devastating effects of war to humankind.

Set to realign the mind to pursue peace, “Perspective: The Golden Rule” raises awareness on the good and on what should be corrected.

David Meakes recently released a hardcover version of “Perspective: The Golden Rule.” Find it in selected online bookstores.
