[GMW #4816] Human Settlements And Migrations - A United Nations Specialized Agency

[GMW #4816] Human Settlements And Migrations - A United Nations Specialized Agency Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 4000

~ Idea 47 ~  26 August 1994

It is not normal that only one form of migrations, namely refugees, should be dealt with in the United Nations.

The Office of the UN High Commissioner for Refugees should be merged with UN Habitat into a UN specialized Agency on Human Settlements and migrations, with corresponding Offices or Ministries in member governments.

Chapter 12 - Of Beauty and Arts


Perhaps Mother Nature has taken the pain of creating so much beauty around us to give us the love to live.

[GMW #4056] The Great Sea Eagle Comes To Unite The World Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 4000

A beautiful, prophecy of the Eskimos, "One day the great sea eagle will come from the mountain and will unite the world."

Scientists tell us that a species that does not take good care of its habitat is doomed.  Humanity must become a caring one instead of a conquering, destructive, overconsuming one.

[GMW #3411] Are You Happy Where You Live?


[GMW #3411] Are You Happy Where You Live? Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3810 ~
UN Habitat should also make a world survey of places worth living in. The question would be: are you happy where you live; if yes, say why; if not, say why not.

More generally there should be more happiness surveys and statistics in the world. We have statistics and data on innumerable subjects except on fundamental values such as happiness, peace, justice, spirituality, democracy, etc.

The following statement by George Washington which I repeat here is applicable to the entire world:

"The aggregate happiness of society, which is best promoted by the practice of a virtuous policy, is or ought to be the end of all governments."

George Washington

If he were alive the first thing he would do would be to create a Ministry or Department of Happiness in the US government.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume II The Art of Personal Happiness
Chapter 2, Of Happiness

Happiness dispels unhappiness as light dispels obscurity.
Therefore, switch on the happiest currents you have in yourself.

WORD FOR THE DAY
To be nobody but yourself in a world which is doing its best day and night to make you everybody else, means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight, and never stop fighting.

[GMW #3262] Reforestation Not Golf

[GMW #3262] Reforestation Not Golf Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3662 ~
God looking down on Earth and asking:
"What have they invented now down there, big mechanical snails?"

Goddess Eartha:
"No, they are golf course vehicles. There are thousands of them all over the United States and their number is increasing all over the world."

And then she goes on explaining to God what the golf sport is and
God shakes his head and says: "What else will they not be inventing?"

Goddess Eartha:
"Well, at least it preserves a good surface of mine, even if most of them are completely deforested and are only meadows. The grass of these meadows is constantly cut short with mowing machines which produce pollution and prevent the grass from growing and producing oxygen and consuming carbon dioxide."

God:
"Well, this is even worse than I thought."

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume II The Art of Personal Happy Living
Chapter 8, Of Health

We had a dog called Cleo who sniffed and scratched the door to be let out whenever someone smoked in the house. As a result, no one smoked. An animal reminded us of a basic common sense rule: to breathe the natural God-given air of our habitat.
