WORLD MARCH FOR PEACE AND NON-VIOLENCE!

Why?

Because we can end world hunger with 10% of what is spent on arms. Imagine how life would be if 30-50% of the arms budget went toward improving people’s lives instead of being used for destruction.

Because eliminating wars and violence means leaving human pre-history behind and taking a giant step forward in the evolution of our species.

Because we are accompanied by the voices of all the war-torn generations that came before us. The echo of their voices still resounds throughout the world, wherever armed conflict leaves its sinister memorial to the dead, disappeared, disabled and displaced.

Because a “world without wars” is an image that opens the future and seeks to become reality in every corner of the planet, as violence gives way to dialog.

The moment has come for the voiceless to be heard! Out of agonizing and urgent need, millions of human beings are crying out for an end to wars and violence.

We can make that happen by uniting all the forces of pacifism and active non-violence worldwide. Continue reading WORLD MARCH FOR PEACE AND NON-VIOLENCE!

What can be done to help children in times like these?

sageHELLO!

My name is Barbara Ayash

This letter is being sent to Americans believing our nation has been nominated by the world to keep the torch of Freedom burning. Since 1776 – Americans, including children, have set the example for the rest of the world.

The 16th President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln, put it this way: “Democracy must be based not on ‘mere’ opinion but on ‘moral purpose.” This great man led this nation in a war that defended freedom for all people in America, be they white, black, red, brown, or yellow because he believe in the basic goodness of mankind.

A leading black educator, Luis W. Sullivan, U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services once stated: “To teach young people that their lives are governed – not by their own actions, but by socio-economic forces or . . . forces beyond their control—is to teach our children negativism, resignation, passivity and despair. Values [morals] pave the way out of poverty and toward prosperity and fulfillment. “

Whether earned or won by war, freedom is not based on enslavement, hatred, dishonesty, mistrust, murder, robbery or other crimes, drug abuse, illiteracy or injustice. If ‘Freedom,’ according to Mr. Lincoln, is based on ‘moral purpose’ then a definition of the term ‘moral’ that anyone can understand is required. Webster’s New World Dictionary definition reads: . . “folkways that are considered conducive to the welfare of society and so, through general observance, develop the force of law, often becoming part of the formal legal code.” Example: “Moral people are those capable of making the distinction between right and wrong in conduct.”

The author of a book first published in 1981 titled The Way To Happiness® defined the term “morals” this way: “There is freedom in knowing what is thought right and what is thought wrong. There is only slavery when nobody knows and the rules are ‘off the cuff.’ If a moral code were thoroughly reasonable, it could, at the same time be considered thoroughly ethical. But only at this highest level could the two be called the same.

It is not just the job of our loved ones in uniform set to go to war. It is the job of every citizen to HELP take responsibility for some of the things America stands for. Today we live in a dangerous environment. War seems eminent. Even children protest that idea. If you champion the dignity of mankind and freedom for mankind, then you believe in the basic goodness of mankind. The United States Constitution is based on a belief in mankind, his basic goodness, his right to personal freedom and the pursuit of happiness.

If we as a great society begin to pull together towards a purpose shared in common as stated by President Lincoln, we can help create a better society for all. We can ensure our children and grandchildren inherit a less dangerous world – perhaps even a world based on mutual understanding, peace, tolerance and freedom for all mankind.

Thank you for reading this letter. Please accept my gift of this e-book (internet version) of The Way To Happiness and follow the directions as given.

This little book speaks for itself. I has been published in 90 plus languages, over 70 million copies have been given as gifts to friends and family they care about. Read it. Enjoy it. I know you will find it worthy of your review, just as millions of others have done including more than 12 million American school children. Over the past 25 years students aged 4-17 participating in the National Set A Good Example Student Challenge have planned, carried out and delivered improvement projects that “set a good example for the adult world! ”

Launched in 1981 I and my husband Bob became involved created the National Set A Good Example Student Challenge inviting students to create projects that would help get drugs off school grounds. Student programs have earned 16 United States Congressional Record Commendations, applause by governors of all states, and mayors across the country. Based on their examples we are now creating Adult TMSAGE-USA Clubs that will help their children lead happy and drug free lives based on 21 common sense guidelines for living contained in a booklet entitled The Way To Happiness® which you can read here: http://www.twth.org/eb/?id=19000b Our gift for you and your family.

I do good deeds for anyone deserving and in turn, ask that it be paid forward to someone in need of a good deed. That way, when I am in need, I will have many people willing to offer help. What goes around, comes around.
I have many, many talents and abilities and I help people where possible to set a good example and inspire others to do the same.
Sometimes, I like to challenge people’s rationale on things to get them to see if there is a better, more beneficial way of doing things.
Etc. etc. etc.
I help.

I put more beauty in the world with my paintings and inspire others to follow their artistic dreams, and give them plenty of advice when they ask for it.
I set a good example with my own moral principles and speak up when I don’t think something is right. I give people affinity when I talk to them and brighten up their day. I lend assistance and encouragement whenever I can.

Inspiration that Motivates

This is an author’s post by Joe Ball:

Causing things is great! I know that is a broad statement and it’s intended to be. Causing things is something we all have in common because we all do it.

Being the effect has its upsides too!  My favorite thing when it comes to being an effect is not the taste of an intensely juicy orange, or the thrill of jumping from a plane with a parachute on my back- it’s being inspired, inspired by individuals that make a difference.

There have been times I have given and given and given. It’s in my nature. An imbalance occurred when it seemed like the giving was only one way. In truth, I know there are many people that have desires and take action to make a difference. Well, I want to make those desires and actions known.

I know I’m not the only one that finds inspiration to be of incredible value.

A friend of mine, Carl Watts, started promoting 3 short youtube videos. He called this campaign, ’save the world’ and promoted it on his website. I got a pretty good idea of where he was going with this campaign before I even watched a video. Instantly a new website expanding on the concept popped into my head, and I stayed up all night making it. See, causing things is great; it makes you stay up past your bedtime.

I did end up watching the videos, and after I sobbed for a couple minutes I decided I would invite you to sign up on the site. That’s now.

You will be doing me a great favor and potentially many others by taking a moment to do so. First check out the site, and then help me tap into the power of inspiration.

On the sign up page you have the option of subscribing to the newsletter, which will share highlights on what others are doing to make a difference. Also we’ll keep you informed on other updates like new site features that have yet to get developed.

If you find any of this interesting or helpful please forward this letter or the link. If you have ideas or suggestions, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. I am very interested in creating the most optimum place for inspiring others into action- (it’s something others have done for me and I am now paying forward)
