From this Sunday 26 October on, the citizens of the sixteen countries of the European Union will no longer need a passport when they travel to another country of the Union. This would have been inconceivable a few decades ago. My grandparents who held successively five nationalities (French, German, French, German and French) and knew three wars; my parents who had successively four nationalities (German, French, German and French) and knew two wars, must be rejoicing and celebrating in heaven. As for me who was born in Belgium and had three successive nationalities (French, German and French) I remember with sadness all my youth school friends from Alsace-Lorraine who died unnecessarily in German or French uniforms during World War II. I pledge to them that I will not cease my efforts, as long as I live, to create a World Union in which all borders will be suppressed and no passports be any longer needed. This Earth is our country and we are all its citizens. My thoughts go also to my deceased compatriot from Alsace-Lorraine, Robert Schuman, who was the author of that miracle. May God, the saints and the souls of all Europeans in heaven embrace him, and may he soon be declared himself a saint. I am working for it. When I read this text to my wife Barbara, she commented: I was born from a family of Hungarian origin in the United States, therefore became an American. Now I consider myself to be an Inlovian, someone in love with you, with this magnificent Earth and with all humanity. Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living, Volume II Chapter 11 - Of Gratitude I would like to see world competitions for peace, for love, for happiness, for goodness, for philanthropy, and for spirituality, instead of the current sea of dominating competition for profit, for money and wealth.

The issue of non-compliance of the Agenda 21 for the improvement of the environment, agreed to in Rio de Janeiro, even led to the holding this summer of a special session of the UN General Assembly on the subject. The results were nil. I suggest that the Agenda 21 be brought to the attention of all local communities and relevant institutions in the world, who can implement them without waiting for action by central governments. Nothing prevents a city or province or business from implementing the Agenda. The result world-wide would be considerable. The situation also raises the urgency of considering a proper Earth government as I outlined earlier which would give the United Nations or a new world institution like the European Union the basic legislative authority to adopt global laws which would be enforceable. As the days and months pass, I am more and more convinced that this has become an utmost urgency if we want to save this planet from destruction. Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living, Volume II Chapter 11 - Of Gratitude Three of the finest concepts ever developed by the human race are: God as the supreme image of the universe Happiness as the supreme objective of human life Love as the supreme means to achieve happiness Let us therefore become the Planet of God Let us become the Planet of Happiness Let us become the Planet of Love. If I love life, then life will be beautiful. If I love my family, I will have a happy family. If I love my work, I will be successful. If I love my house, I will have a beautiful home. If I love to study, to write, to read, to paint, to sculpt, to garden, to sing, to walk, my life will be happier through these loves. If I love God, I will find an ultimate happiness.

We would answer: planet Earth, from the old Germanic goddess Eartha, and also Gaya, from the Greek belief that the Earth is a nebula, Goddess Gaya, which became the Earth. They would comment: that is beautiful but from what we see around us you should change its name to planet Business and Marketing. Our comment: well, this was thought of also by the Romans who called it planet Pluto (wealth) and planet Mammon (the God of money). Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living, Volume II Chapter 11 - Of Gratitude Life is born from the ecstasy of love. That says a lot about the importance of love.

Some of the elements she mentioned were: no luxury meditation absence of trauma absence of desires absence of rat-race absence of disturbances I am anxious to see the result. She is also thinking of ordering T-shirts for gifts, with these words: Life is a miracle The Earth is a paradise Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living, Volume II Chapter 11 - Of Gratitude What a paradise on Earth it will be when no one will hate anymore! What a wonderful peaceful, love-capable world it will be when all governments will have adopted this same provision in their constitution: "Aspiring sincerely to an international peace based on justice and order, the Japanese people forever renounce war as a sovereign right of the nation and the threat or use of force as means of settling international disputes. In order to accomplish the aim of the preceding paragraph, land, sea, and air forces, as well as other war potential, will never be maintained. The right of belligerency of the state will not be recognized."

In idea 557 I proposed that business should be requested to hold a World Conference on Proper Earth Government through the Free Market System. Perhaps the International Chamber of Commerce should change its name into International Organization of Business and hold such a conference or a series of smaller conferences, including regional ones, to bring forth much needed answers and changes in the business world. It might prevent a major world economic crisis, unavoidable if business continues on the same course, as was pointed out by Mr. Tachi Kiuchi, Chief Executive Officer of Mitsubishi Electrical, in a keynote address to the World Futures Society in July 1997. Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living, Volume II Chapter 11 - Of Gratitude Instead of, or with precedence over stock markets, I would like to see everywhere in the world: peace markets love markets happiness markets good actions markets philanthropy markets In each of these markets there would be daily or frequent reports like, for the stock markets, on the best and biggest actions in the world and in nations by governments, individuals, families, the wealthy, corporations, organizations, religions, etc. UN News Sources - UN Chronicle, United Nations News Service , UN Wire News Archive References: Earth Charter, Universal Declaration of Human Rights Rights of: Children, Women, Indigenous People To Be Written: Rights of Nature, Birds, Animals, Fish, etc. HeartMath.com "What you receive from others is a testimony to their virtue; but all that you do for others is the sign and clear indication of your own." - Giordano Bruno Books recommended by Robert are here.

[GMW #2352] For A Better World Write Down Ideas and Dreams & Create Idea-Banks in All Organizations Monday 19 December 2011, Editor: Easy | RobertMuller.org | Contact | Subscribe | Unsubscribe | Biography | World Core Curriculum | Store | NEW Facebook | Twitter | GMW Blogs: English | Portuguese | Spanish | Tagalog | Dutch | Idea Dream - Robert Muller's Ideas 1001 to 1500 ~ Idea 1202 ~ 25 October 1997 I recommend that all current and former officials of the United Nations and of its specialized agencies and world programs write down their ideas and dreams for a better world. The UN and its agencies should publish these ideas for the year 2000. More generally there should be idea-banks in all world agencies. Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living, Volume II Chapter 9 - Of Spirituality - Annex - My Spiritual Journey I hear often people say: "I am proud to be a US citizen", or "a Frenchman", or "a German", etc. But I can count on my fingers the number of people who say: "I am proud to be a human being, a member of the human family, a world citizen." Can't we ever get our loves, our allegiances straight? How many centuries more will it take? And by that time it might be too late.
