| | | [GMW #1727] Reforming National Governments To Be More Responsive To The Needs Of The People And Of The Planet, More Coordination With The United Nations | Wednesday 3 June 2009, Editor: Easy | RobertMuller.org | Contact | Subscribe | Unsubscribe | | GMW Blogs: English | Portuguese | Spanish | Tagalog | Dutch | | Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1 to 500 | ~ Idea 249 ~ 16 March 1995 There is a lot of talk of United Nations reform. But what about national governments reform? I recommend a World Commission of Eminent Personalities on National Government Reform. It should bring about more unity in the way governments are organized, more responsive to the needs of the people and of the planet, and more coordinated with the United Nations and its agencies. It should look into the colossal waste of national military and other staggering unnecessary expenditures. The fiscal situation of nation-states is a scandal. There is no real, world economy. There is enormous world waste and duplication. * |
| Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living, Volume III Chapter 6 The Rich Age | Why are young people so beautiful, so healthy? Why do young people heal so quickly? Simply because nature wants them to reproduce at optimum capacity. Why are the elderly less beautiful, less vigorous and slow to heal? Because, like withering flowers, plants and any other long living creatures they have lost their reproducing function and are no longer of the same use to nature. But nature has a use for every age. If we find a way to be of service to it, to the progress of life, to evolution, nature will say: "this elderly person is still useful. I have no interest in losing him or her." As a result we will be shinier, happier, more vigorous and will live longer. * | | We don't receive wisdom; we must discover it for ourselves after a journey that no one can take for us or spare us.
