Seeking a Larger View of the World

I am more than

a member of a tribe.

I am more than

a member of a sex.

I am more than

a member of a

race, religion

or nationality.

I am part of

an infinite voice

circling the cosmos

forever.

----------------------------------------

Every group has its own agenda. Seeking a larger view than the diverse parts of our lives gives us the perspective to evaluate the ongoing events of living with a clearer vision.

If we focus only on being a woman or a man, on being European, or Asian, or American, or on being a particular race or religion, we lose the sense of belonging to the entire human family- all of us living on one earth under the same sky.

Our ultimate destiny must be to help create a livable, happy environment for all who share our planet.
