The World Is A Self-Creating Mystery

The world as pure object is something that is not there. 

It is not a reality outside us for which we exist....
It is a living and self-creating mystery of which 
I am myself a part, to which 
I am myself, my own unique door.
~Thomas Merton, Contemplation in a World of Action

Living Creative Peace

"Living "Creative PEACE" Tribute to DR ROBERT MULLER ...

by Michael A Riddell

DeLIGHTed BARBARA because your "Angel" Robert's LIGHT shines 

bright in the lives of many many people around Mother Earth.

A 'Think Tank Group' in ARGENTINA just asked me to write a 

Tribute about Robert because of my involvement with him in NYC 

at the UN --- I said

"The visionary Dr ROBERT MULLER was Deputy Secretary-General 

of the United Nations and co-founder of the UN University for 

Peace (UPeace) in Costa Rica, the beautiful creative peaceful 

Heart of the Americas.

He was the first UPeace Chancellor. Robert was a friend and 

mentor encouraging with UN patronage the :"Lady Liberty 7777

mile Olympic Torch" Run from New York City to Costa Rica as a 

"living ArtPEACE" that I created, produced and performed in 

1983/4. With the Children of Costa Rica we entrusted the Olympic 

Torch to the UPeace and planted "Seeds of Hope-Peace" and 

"Trees of Life" that flourish today in memory of Dr Robert Muller's 

Smiling WISDOM & VISION."

Give In Full Measure

A hundred times a day I remind myself
that my inner and outer life
depend on the labors of other people,
living and dead, and that I must exert myself
in order to give in the full measure
I have received and am still receiving.
~ Albert Einstein

To Be At Service Is The Very Purpose Of Life

Service is the rent we pay for the
privilege of living on this earth.
It is the very purpose of life, and
not something you do in your spare time.
