Entertainment - a means of forgetting?

What is entertainment? Apart from being a huge, multi-faceted, multi-billion dollar industry what is it? Things that are entertaining used to be called past-times because that's what they do - pass time. Yet everyone says "Life's short" so can we really afford just to pass time? Doesn't every moment count?

Well, we don't know. But this is probably why the major spiritual traditions don't start their spiritual paths with an exhortation to go out and do good.

How can we inspire change?

I don't know about you but over the years I've tried to make changes to myself, my lifestyle, my habits etc. It's hard. Anyone who has ever made a New Year's Resolution knows just how hard it can be. So if we find it hard to change ourselves how can we change the behaviour etc., of others?

Congrats Obama: Lets do it together!

After 8 long years of Bush - a fresh start. Let's seize this historic moment to send a flood of global messages to Obama. Our message and the number of signers, as well as all our personal messages, will be displayed on a giant wall in the heart of Washington DC. Over the next 48 hours, the wall could become a focal point for US media reporting on global reactions to the Obama win. A massive global response will help make this a major moment of unity and reconciliation between the US and the world. Let's get to a million!
