in the quietude of my contemplation, i reflect upon the unofficial narratives of world war 1, where humanity, in the preparatory silence before the storm, sought moments to push aside the looming shadows of conflict, to model peace in the midst of turmoil. it is here, in these untold tales, we find the courage to begin again, embracing each dawn as an opportunity to sow seeds of harmony anew, unofficial though they may be, their legacy endures in the hearts yearning for tranquility.
