Different We Are Together…

“We were made different to complete each other…”

    — Egyptian engineer Muhammad Saladin Nusair,
       whose photo supporting Wisconsin workers went viral… 

Two remarkable presentations of our common humanity and shared predicament showed up in my email today. One is one of the most beautiful and intense videos I’ve ever seen and the other is a glimpse of the global spirit infusing the current uprisings in very diverse nations.

 

Blessings on our shared Journey…

 

Coheartedly,
Tom

And a closing word for U.S. Americans, from Ralph Nader:

 

“In a country that has so many problems it doesn’t deserve and so many solutions that it doesn’t apply; all things are possible when people begin looking at themselves for the necessary power to produce a just society.”
