Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1001 to 1500
~ Idea 1285 ~
16 January 1998
The private enterprise, financial, marketing, advertising capitalist system claims that it will bring prosperity to the entire world.

Well, the Secretary General of the UN reported to the last UN General Assembly that 100 nations on this planet have become poorer in the last fifteen years and that 1.3 billion people of this Earth have a daily income of only one dollar.

The UN also reports that world-wide and within all nations the rich are getting richer and the poor poorer.

When will someone at long last stand up and challenge the present free enterprise system?

Someday, population growth will stop or be so slow and life so precious that people will thank God for having been allowed to be born and to live.

Love is based on imagination.
-- Olivier Martinez



DailyGood
 Moral imagination is the capacity to empathize with others, i.e., not just to feel for oneself, but to feel with and for others.
-- Thomas McCollough
~~~~ Good News of the Day:
Sometimes the greatest lessons come unexpectedly, and from the smallest moments. 7-year-old Owen Shure's heart-warming letter to a football player is a perfect example. The Twittersphere buzzed with reactions to the San Francisco 49ers' Kyle Williams fumbling the ball in a tight moment in the playoffs. Some responses were downright vitriolic. But hopefully Kyle also saw this touching story from Ben Mankiewicz: 'He was crying, saying of Kyle Williams, with the distinct sobs of a seven-year-old between each word, "But... why... did he... have to... fumble?" [...] Trying to get his son to stop crying, Michael asked him, "If you feel this way, how sad do you think Kyle Williams is?" Owen paused a second, then asked his dad, "Can I write him a letter to make him feel better?"' Nisha Srinivasan shares her reflections on Kyle's letter. [More]

Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1001 to 1500
~ Idea 1421 ~    1 June 1998

Perhaps a state enterprises stock market, even a world enterprises stock market should be created, so that people could invest their savings in public common service enterprises if they prefer them to private enterprise, the latter being subject to speculations, risks and staggering waste caused by excessive competition. 

Darwinism, which is being challenged for evolution should also be challenged with regard to business and economics.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,  
Volume II Chapter 4 - Of Positive Living
If you are a poet surround yourself with images and works of great poets.
If you are a musician, by music of your favorite composers.
If you are a doctor, by books of famous doctors.
If you are a states person, by busts and biographies of great statespersons.
If you are a world servant, by images and works of great world servants.

Beautiful Celebration
Dearest Margaret,
Thank you for celebrating Robert's life with us.
Yes, he was there with all of us in love and gratitude for you
and the 160 who took time to say thank you!

Love and thank you for your kind comments in your e-mail and for being you!
Dear Barbara,
What a beautiful day!   What a beautiful celebration of
Robert Muller's life!   His love radiated out to all who were
there.   What fantastic wisdom he shared.  People will
be asking him questions long into the century and they
will be pleased to receive the answers in his many books
and writings.  Maybe the world will catch up to him some day.

I am so pleased that Good Morning World is continuing.
I have just subscribed.

Ode To Joy will even be more special to me now
that I know it was his favorite.

With warmest greetings,
Margaret

Remarks at
Memorial Service for Robert Muller
[delivered by Mr. Kiyo
Akasaka, USG for Communications and Public Information]

I offer sincere condolences to all the family members, friends, former
colleagues and others who have gathered to mourn the loss and
commemorate the life of Dr. Robert Muller. I thank the Global Security
Institute for hosting this service.

I did not know Dr. Muller personally, but I am well aware of the very
high regard in which he is held throughout the United Nations
community. And I do know this: when death claims a staff member who
brought such tremendous passion and commitment to our work, and who
devoted so many decades to this Organization, it is a loss for the
living United Nations family as a whole.

Robert Muller was a justifiably renowned figure. His creativity and
influence were instrumental in the conception of scores of
multilateral bodies, including the UN Development Programme, the World
Food Programme, the UN Population Fund, and the World Youth Assembly
-- some of the key endeavours that define the United Nations and our
global work. He knew that these could not be impersonal institutional
structures but, rather, had to be alive with vision, compassion and a
powerful sense of human unity.

Dr. Muller brought precisely that spirit to whatever task he
undertook. For him, the entire human family was his family. He also
helped orchestrate the first-ever UN Conference on the Human
Environment in Stockholm in 1972, and was deeply involved in many
other global gatherings. His career spanned the decades, the issues,
and even almost all the professional ranks of the Secretariat รข€“
starting from the P1 level and rising steadily to
Assistant-Secretary-General, directly serving three of my
predecessors. He also had a tremendous imprint on global education,
including through the University of Peace, and richly earned the
UNESCO Prize for Peace Education in 1989.

We will miss our optimist-in-residence, as some called him. But he
remains a source of inspiration, and his example and his teachings
will continue to guide us in our global mission of peace, development
and human rights. On this day that would have been his 88th birthday,
let us celebrate just the same - the life of a remarkable man who
brought hope and good works to the world.
