Three things cannot be hidden: the sun, the moon, and the truth.~Buddha

The Elders are an independent group of eminent global leaders, brought together by Nelson Mandela, who offer their collective influence and experience to support peace building, help address major causes of human suffering and promote the shared interests of humanity.

The Elders are particularly grateful to the founders of the organization, Richard Branson and Peter Gabriel, whose creativity, persistence and generosity have enabled a remarkable idea to be realized.

One of several initiatives organized by The Elders is Every Human Has Rights. Please add your voice to this campaign. You can read the full preamble at the discussion called Universal Declaration of Human Rights

Life is short....

break the rules.

Forgive quickly,

kiss slowly,

love truly,

laugh uncontrollably.

And never regret anything that made you smile.

Life may not be the party we hoped for....

but while we are here....we should DANCE!

Thanks to Linda for the poem!

Music is perpetual, and only the hearing is intermittent.”~Henry David Thoreau
