[GMW #3152] Love Movement For The Earth - Walk More, Run More, Love Nature More


[GMW #3152] Love Movement For The Earth - Walk More, Run More, Love Nature More
Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500

~ Idea 3552 ~
The Earth:
"Dear Robert, I see that more and more people in the rich countries begin to walk more, to run more and to love more nature again. This is hopeful. Why don't we recommend a whole series of new 'loves' or 'revived loves' movements, e.g.:

love for simple and frugal life
a reduction of automobile and airplane use
a move from cities to rural areas
an anti-waste revolution
a revived love for art, beauty, nature and traditions from the past.
Please, as lifelong Honorary President of the new Global Peoples' Assembly why don't you suggest the creation of world non-government organizations on these objectives?"

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume II Chapter 14 Of Writing
Once, when I visited him in Geneva, I suggested to Secretary-General Perez de Cuellar that we should both write a Testament, rather than Memoirs, after we leave the UN.

The same afternoon, I met him in an antique bookshop in the old town of Geneva. I asked him: "I did not know that you were interested in ancient books?" He answered:

"No, I came here to find the Testament of Cardinal Richelieu to the King and people of France. He was the father of the nation-state. We must father the united world."

My own Testament came out in 1992 as a contribution to the 50th anniversary of the UN in 1995. I sent him a copy. I do not know if he wrote his"

WORD FOR THE DAY
To live content with small means; to seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion....In a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common. This is to be my symphony.
~ William Henry Channing

[GMW #3033] Provide Visitors Etymology Of Cities, Countries, Geography & Shrines


[GMW #3033] Provide Visitors Etymology Of Cities, Countries, Geography & Shrines   
Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3427 ~
Tourism agencies should provide visitors with the etymology of the high points, geography, cities, shrines of the countries visited. This is particularly necessary for countries which have a different language, traditions and history.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume  II Chapter 13 Of Speaking
In the name of whom or what should we speak?
In the name of our precious, unique self or
in the name of the miracle of life and human fulfillment on this miraculous Earth in the vast, mysterious universe?

Mountains and oceans have whole worlds of innumerable wondrous features. We should understand that it is not only our distant surroundings that are like this, but even what is right here, even a single drop of water.

[GMW #3013] Showcase Examples Of Communities Nestled In Beautiful, Well-Preserved, Heavenly Nature


[GMW #3013] Showcase Examples Of Communities Nestled In Beautiful, Well-Preserved, Heavenly Nature 
Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 3001 to 3500
~ Idea 3407 ~
In a beautiful country like France no multilevel apartment buildings should be allowed to be built. They disfigure villages and small towns. Every family should be given facilities to build their own modest house. Big cities should be de-concentrated. France should dream and become a model, a showplace, a paradise of villages and little communities with preserved traditions, nestled in a beautiful, well-preserved, heavenly nature.

Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living,
Volume I Chapter 6 I and Creation
The only true objective of life is to find one's right place and role in Creation.
