| The events of recent history have reminded us about the preciousness of life, the value of true compassion, and the importance of intending and taking constructive, positive actions in our own lives each day to promote and support our deepest values and priorities. This can be amazingly easy, and intensely satisfying, to do.
In this spirit, and because we believe that every person, every action, and every thought can make a difference, we'd like to invite you to participate in a Season of Positive Action. Our Season of Positive Action is inspired by the principles promoted by the Season of Nonviolence, which was itself inspired by the visions of Mahatma Gandhi and the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Each year, the Season of Nonviolence begins on January 30 and continues for 64 days, during which people participate privately and voluntarily by engaging in activities such as honest communication, compassion, tolerance, courage, listening and generosity of spirit. Whether you practice the Season of Nonviolence ideals at the beginning of each year, or start mid-year or later, it's always an ideal time to renew our dedication to the principles of and responsibilities related to nourishing our connection to Spirit and one another, and cherishing our most satisfying responsibilities as co-creators of our communities and our own experience of it. But why stop with 64 days? Why not look at launching a year-long season that begins with the Season of Nonviolence and continues right on through the year in an enduring Season of Positive Action? Action you can take today Begin by reviewing some of the links included on this page, and scheduling some time for reflection about how you might share your highest and best self to contribute to more positive interactions, a more positive and skillful workplace, a safer and friendlier neighborhood or community, and a more loving and kind home. You can make a difference; your thoughts and actions do matter. Why not start here, right now? |
