Carlos said he wanted TV time round the world 24/7 and I thought it was a good idea especially in light of what isn't on TV at present. There seems to be such an outpouring of support for spiritually centered messages in the print medium and when these topics come up on TV specials everyone wants to watch, so it seems a natural for someone to take a leap and fill the void.

So how can we help Carlos to realize his vision? What would work on a 24/7 program that would facilitate daily interest? One of course would be to invite visionaries and afford some time for their futuristic view of the world yet to be, along with other creative people adding their time to enjoy time for meditation, music, share some of the creative video's we've seen here and a host of a new expanded consciousness not seen on TV before.

Carlos got this far, so we should see what we can do to help him get to the next step while we are enjoying the most pleasurable company anywhere on the Net. Perhaps a group focus in the most positive way possible might bring something to this world that's needed now more than ever.

So about now we should be asking, why are we here? Is there a purpose for a greater good? If so, let's get outside the box and make it happen.

Hope all is well with you too Richard,

Petra

One of the projects I am thinking of launching is an email newsletter of sorts, that would likely come out once a week, and is focused on 'good news' or short articles that have people feeling good. There's lots of bad news all the time. How often do you get 'good news'? Anyway, thought I'd share that as it seems to relate somewhat to what you are doing Richard! Take care. Glenn

Here is the opening of the third book of LITTLE GREEN trilogy, OUT OF THE REVOLUTION:

The Gun of June

The Gun of June
Shot down
The ideals of the young
Shattered
The remnant dreams of the middle-aged
Broke
The hearts of the old

Thank you for the invitation, it would be an honor to take you up on it at some time.
Chun & I spoke, I would like to invite you to our place on Wednesday night, March 4th, for a home cooked meal by mwa (that's me)
some good conversation & can show you the full dome storyboards that Jinan has been working on. JinAn & I both work during the day but our evening is free--7 pm ish. It'll be fresh, tasty, vegetarian with a promise of desert. Does this work for you?
Best regards, Dania McWong of the countycork/toishan lineage
