Soon it will be New Year's eve and as midnight starts in Siberia and works
its way around the globe, the people of the world will take their successive
turns wishing for a better year than the last one.

But wouldn't it be wonderful if everyone in the whole world were to wish for
something better at the same moment in time.

What if, at the moment of the southern solstice (Dec. 21, 17:47 GMT)
everyone
in the world at the same moment were to simply make a wish for a saner
world?

I am recommending a wish for sanity because first, it's not a controversial
issue, and second, we all know what it is. It's that undefinable quality of
mental and emotional functioning that we all wish we had a little more of.
We can wish it for ourselves, we can wish it for our friends, and we can
even honestly wish it for our enemies.

A simple two minutes -- perhaps while commuting home from work in London,
or driving to work in Honolulu, finishing lunch in New York, or closing
time in Manila. If enough people try it all at once, something interesting
just might happen.

If this idea intrigues you, please forward this to your friends far and
wide,
or use your own words.
