Stand up...by Sitting Out!!!!Stand up...by Sitting Out!!!! One day This is a call to action, not a call to arms, to all who feel voiceless and powerless, caught in the system, or kept out. On 11/11/05 there will be a world-wide Sit-Out. The 11-11 global Sit-Out is one day about accountability, spearheaded by the average citizen. There is no leadership behind this. There is no group or organization behind this message other than the amazing amount of people in the world from all races, religions, and beliefs who feel the same frustration. We all feel this frustration but feel we have no voice or ability to do anything about it. This started with a thought created from the frustration of the many that was created by the few. In this increasingly smaller and more connected world, it is becoming more and more evident each day that those in government and business have no interest for the wellbeing of the common man and woman, the health of the planet, and the future of our free society. Forgotten are the poor, the elderly, the sick, the indigenous peoples, the worker, and the young. We have become invisible, but we do have a voice and it is in our actions every day. On this day our actions will be louder than words and our voice will be heard. On 11/11/05 just sit out and Pause for Peace. Pause for anything you believe in and feel you never have the time to accomplish. Stay home, spend time with family, friends, and loved ones, don't drive anywhere, don't buy anything,dont watch the news, enjoy the silence and the peace of mind this pause will bring globally. Stop what you do to support the status quo. Rise up and be heard. Fight Apathy by doing nothing...Realize that we are the wheels that keep this machine going.. Stop the machine for one day...Let it come to a crashing hault and realize that we hold all the power in the world...to really change things!!

propeace quoteWe stand by as children starve by the millions because we lack the will to eliminate hunger. Yet, we have found the will to develop missiles capable of flying over the polar cap and landing within a few hundred feet of their target. This is not innovation. It is a profound distortion of humanity's purpose on earth. daily omrecent blog postsactive discussionssimilar postswho's onlineThere are currently 0 users and 6 guests online.

Wise Words
If you overesteem great men,
people become powerless.
If you overvalue possessions,
people begin to steal.
The Master leads
by emptying people's minds
and filling their cores,
by weakening their ambition
and toughening their resolve.
He helps people lose everything
they know, everything they desire,
and creates confusion
in those who think that they know.
Practice not-doing,
and everything will fall into place.
Tao Te Ching
by Lao-tzu (abt.551-479 BCE
