One Peace - Don't You Dare Miss It!

I just came from the One Peace concert tonight at Unity Livonia Church. I didn't know any of the performers, but the program was uplifting and inspiring. As frosting on my "peace" of cake, I saw an old friend; Dr. Sharif Abdullah, author of Creating a World That Works For All and founder of the Commonway Institute. I met him at the conference for the International Alliance of Holistic Lawyers in North Carolina, three years ago. He was a fascinating speaker there, awakening in us all a desire to honor and protect our planet.

He is going to be the keynote speaker at the Saturday, Sept. 19th One Peace Event, "Creating a World that Works for All." Held at Schoolcraft College, this uplifting program also offers other presenters, as well as performers and videoclips that are sure to be fantastic. The program is one that will remain with you long after the event has ended. The program starts at 1 p.m. and lasts until 4 p.m. If you can find a way to be there, do it!

There are many reasons for us all to begin coming together to preserve our sacred home; planet Earth, and to start thinking of ourselves as citizens of a global community. Especially at this challenging moment in our country's history, the time is ripe for change. If you find your life lacks a certain purpose and direction, you may find it here. It can't hurt to try.
