What i believe the speaker if suggesting about constructing peace is that the key to constructing peace starts with you. The poem brings out a beautiful and strong hidden meaning that you do not need to drive your self crazy looking for peace in a certain person , place , or thing , the greatest piece is the piece you construct for yourself. No one in this world is going to help you better than you can help yourself so you should love yourself , help yourself , and create peace for yourself. The poem passionately states , "To construct peace, to make love, to reconcile waking with sleeping, ourselves with each other". I believe what the author is trying to say and convey in those words that The real peace , the best is the peace you fight for and create within yourself.

Answer:

What the speaker is suggesting is the means by which she thinks peace, love and reconciliation can be achieved by people, not only with others, but also with themselves. The means she believes are necessary and people would be willing to do, in order to achive these goals, are, first, to bring out from the world of "dreams", or from "sleeping", all those good intentions and good principles, that would become the means of reaching those goals. So she proposes people to open the world of sleeping, of dreams, to bring those good things out into reality. Then she also says that people, if willing to open their entire selves, will be able to allow all those good intentions and actions that are closed up inside, to flow and help them to push their limitations, go beyond those limitations, even release those means, or ways, in which they might try to achieve their final goal of peace making, love making and reconciliation, but which might be wrong. Finally she says that people, who wish to achieve those three goals, are those who are willing to wake, which means, are willing to open up themselves to let all that is good inside, flow out. War is a very complicated matter, and it usually is produced by the greed, and ambition of people, as well as because of the envy that people may have towards one another. But it is possible that if people discovered a little bit more what´s truly within their hearts, which is not all bad, these goals might be achieved.

Change this sentence into reported speech

Blababa [14]

Answer:

I thought to myself if I should tell them then or should i wait until they were in a better mood.

Explanation:

During changing the speech of a sentence from direct to indirect, the present tense is changed into the past tense. Words such as now change to then. This is because, in the direct speech, a person is actually thinking or saying the words mentioned in the sentence. In an indirect speech, the person relates what he thought at a particular time or it is simply describing what other person said.

The first reference would be....
“When thou passeth through the waters I will be with thee, and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee,” Isaiah, 43:2. This is a verse she alludes to when they cut some dry trees, to make rafts to carry them over the river: and soon her turn came to go over: By the advantage of some brush which they had laid upon the raft to sit upon, she did not wet her foot (which many of themselves at the other end were mid-leg deep) which cannot but be acknowledged as a favor of God to her weakened body, it being a very cold time. She was not before acquainted with such kind of doings or dangers. “When thou passeth through the waters I will be with thee, and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee,” Isaiah, 43:2. A certain number of us got over the river that night, but it was the night after the Sabbath before all the company was got over. On Saturday they boiled an old horse’s leg which they had got, and so we drank of the broth, as soon as they thought it was ready, and when it was almost gone, they filled it up again.
