2004-10-04 - 10:01 p.m. - "60 seconds a day for 6 weeks"...DO IT.

I got this email forwarded to me today. I'm pasting it below. Read it. Do it. Send it to as many people as you can...or link them to here. You might laugh at this type of thing, but I know they have statistics from back in the summer of '90-something that when a group of over 1000 people got together in Washington, DC and meditated on peace, the crime rate there went DOWN significantly. If it worked for that, then let it work for this....here it is:

"60 seconds a Day for 6 weeks."

Fahrenheit 9/11 meets What the Bleep

I like this woman's idea.

With only 35 days before the Presidential election, I feel compelled to share this idea. I am an author, activist, and former science writer. I enjoy the intersection of physics and culture - never more obvious than this fall.

AND WHAT TODAY'S MOST SAGE SCIENTISTS ARE SAYING IS THAT WHEN WE FOCUS ON SOMETHING, WE ATTRACT MORE OF IT. SO WITH ONLY SIX WEEKS LEFT, WE NEED TO FOCUS ON WHAT WE REALLY, REALLY WANT. LET'S JOIN TOGETHER IN THE "60 SECONDS A DAY FOR 6 WEEKS CAMPAIGN.”

TO TURN THE TIDE NOW, WE NEED TO DO SOMETHING UNSTOPPABLE. WE NEED A CRITICAL MASS OF US TO STOP RAILING AGAINST WHAT IS AND REACH FOR WHAT WE WANT.

We want John Kerry as our next President. Give up focusing on George Bush. We don't have to agree with him or support him in any fashion. Instead, we have to turn our thoughts now to something greater. We have to do something unstoppable. In the legacy of Einstein and all great thinkers, we have to harness the power of our thoughts to get the outcome we desire in November.

PARTICIPATE IN THE "60 SECONDS A DAY FOR 6 WEEKS CAMPAIGN." IF ONLY 3 PERCENT OF THE U.S. POPULATION TAKES 60 SECONDS TO DO THIS EXERCISE EVERY DAY, WE CAN MAKE A MASSIVE DIFFERENCE.

THIS IS HOW IT WORKS: FOR 60 SECONDS EACH DAY visualize John Kerry elected as our next President of the United States. See the relief, the celebrations, the excitement, and the sense of fulfillment all across America. See yourself rejoicing with people in your home, neighborhood, and workplace . See us all rejoicing
with people all over the world! See John Kerry being sworn into office. Feel the hope, joy, and gratitude. Feel it in your hearts. Believe it is possible. And be sure to vote!

Now, imagine John Kerry restoring greater wellbeing in America.

See people streaming back to work.

See young students getting the support they need.

Visualize our teachers, police officers, single mothers, the mentally ill, and many others getting the help they deserve.

See our soldiers coming home to their families.

Imagine our leaders establishing greater trust and good will, earning the respect of other nations.

See peace spreading across the world.

See the Iraq conflict ending.

Feel how good it will be for the environment to be protected and renewed.

See hope rising across the world in the hearts and souls of those in need.

See these pictures in your mind for 60 seconds every day between now and November 2.

Be grateful that you have th e gift of participating in shaping a greater country.

Be grateful that you care.

Believe that all this is possible, -and more! Please be sure to vote!

PASS THIS ON TO SIX MORE PEOPLE: "60 SECONDS A DAY FOR 6 WEEKS!"

In Peace, Susan Skog
