Celebrating Robert Muller And
International Day Of Peace Each Year On
21 September

~ Idea 1072 ~ 17 June 1997

What a symbol and privilege it is for me to live, after a whole life of world service in the United Nations, in a demilitarized country, in the first University for Peace on this planet, on a sacred hill from which according to indigenous prophecy a civilization of peace will extend to the entire world. And none of it was planned. It was the will of God or of the mysterious forces of the universe. I have become convinced that if one is of service to peace and to a better world, God or the universe's forces help you in the most incredible, unexpected, unplannable ways.

Good morning dear GMW readers,

We are approaching September 20th, the first year Anniversary of my dear Robert Muller's death.

Robert died on the eve of the International Day of Peace which we will celebrate each year on September 21.

Robert's Ideas and Dreams for a Better World, in Good Morning World, are daily reminders of his legacy for peace.

Robert always believed each of us can help bring peace to the world and he worked so hard to be sure his books and Ideas were shared with all of you.

The message below from Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, for the International Day of Peace, reminded me of all of you and Robert, especially these words:

"I salute the activists and ordinary people for their courage and determination to build a better future.

We at the United Nations will work in common cause to realize our shared aspirations for dignity, security and opportunity for all."

I thank each of your for your cards, letters and prayers.

With Appreciation and Love, Barbara Muller

Message of the Secretary-General

Every year on the International Day of Peace, people around the world commit to non-violence and to harmony among all peoples and nations.

Peace is our mission; our day-to-day quest.

This year's theme focuses on the timely issue of peace and democracy.

Democracy is a core value of the United Nations.
It is crucial for human rights.
It provides channels for resolving differences.
It gives hope to the marginalized and power to the people.

But democracy does not just happen; it has to be nurtured and defended.

The world needs you to speak out:
for social justice and freedom of the press;
for a clean environment and women's empowerment;
for the rule of law and the right to a say in one's own future.

This year, young people have been on the frontlines for freedom.

I salute the activists and ordinary people for their courage and determination to build a better future.

We at the United Nations will work in common cause to realize our shared aspirations for dignity, security and opportunity for all.

To all those seeking peace, this is your day, and we are with you.

Ban Ki-moon
