About Me

JOIN AND INVITE AT LEAST 8 FRIENDS...Set your cell phone alarms/alarm clocks for 8:00 p.m. Beijing Time on 08.08.08. Its time for 8 minutes of peace. Thats all you have to do...its simple.... it's a start.The stadium in Beijing can ring with unity and peace.http://www.8minutesofpeace.com http://www.facebook.com/editevent.php?eid=21908261637&gu ests=1#/group.php?gid=4420306820The entire world focuses on one event- the 2008 Olympics opening ceremonies. It is time for the people of the world to wake up and unite and realize that our ability to co-exist on the planet is within our hands. We need to make a change.Its time to forgive those who have hurt us. It is time to apologize for the hurt we have caused. Its time to put aside our greed and lust and look inward and change.War stems from the smallest conflict and that can be right within your own home. So take 8 minutes and forgive someone who has hurt you and apologize to someone you have hurt.NORTH AMERICA- TAKE THE LEAD! Its an early morning sacrifice on a continent where the wars are happening in our own homes or on other lands around the world. Don't turn a blind eye.IS THAT SO HARD???Call someone...hug your wife, your children,your parents, your sister, your brother, your best friend, your so called enemies. Make a change for 8 minutes. Its a start.Take one step towards making a difference. If you don't take that one step....we'll never move forward as a human race.Its only 8 minutes of your life....one healing word to someone in pain can change the world. You don't realize the power you have....try it....HERE IS SOME TIME ZONES TO SYNCHRONIZE TO:BEIJING - CHINA 8:00 p.m. 08/08/08WEBSITE FOR YOUR TIME ZONE- http://www.timezoneconverter.com/cgi-bin/tzc.tzcHONOLULU- USA 2:00 a.m. VANCOUVER - CANADA 5:00 a.m. LOS ANGELES- USA 5:00 a.m. EDMONTON/CALGARY- CANADA 6:00 a.m. WINNIPEG- MANITOBA 7:00 a.m. NEW YORK- USA 8:00 a.m. HAVANA- CUBA 8:00 a.m. TORONTO- CANADA 8:00 a.m BUENOS AIRES- ARGENTINA 9:00 a.m. HALIFAX- CANADA 9:00 a.m. LONDON- ENGLAND 1:00 p.m. PARIS- FRANCE 2:00 p.m. JOHANNESBURG-SOUTH AFRICA- 2:00 P.M.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

8 DAYS OF EVENTS FOR EIGHT**********On the Eight day of every month in 2008 I ask that people around the world create events for "8". The idea being that you bring people together for at least 8 minutes in some unique way and spread the news. The more we come together the more likely we can bring peace to the world.If you create an event for "8" please email us and we will list your event on our website. Any event big or small we will put on our website. Just continue to spread the word. Time is ticking and the world needs you.
