Earlier this week, I got home after a particularly long day at the office and was more than a little exhausted.  I decided to take a walk while waiting for my daughter’s father to bring her home.  As I rounded the corner in my neighborhood, gratefully thinking about all of the people that have walked beside me on this Peace Project journey, I looked up at the moon and felt a jolt of energy so strong that I was taken aback.  I later spoke with a shaman and she shared that I had many powerful guides walking beside me on this journey and this was their way of letting me know that I needed to stay out of the fear, live in gratitude, and that all would be fine

If you’re reading this blog, chances are you’re one of the people that I was thinking about after that long day.  Thank you.  Because of you, we’ve continued to have many large and small miracles this week and I wanted to quickly share some of them with you.

Getty Images has jumped on the Peace train and will be sending a photographer to shoot Operation Rise in Sierra Leone on World Peace Day.  I’m also thrilled to share that filmmaker Sergi Agusti (whose work was a major source of inspiration for The Peace Project), will be joining the documentary team led by Michele D’Acosta and supplemented by a number of local filmmakers from We Own TV.  Michele has been quietly pulling footage from one of our recent visits together, seeking funding and putting the World Peace Day filming plan in place.  I invite you to take a look at one of the clips from an orphanage whose children will be the first crutch recipients.

I was also excited to learn this morning that our first container of product has arrived.  (Yes, that noise you heard was a sigh of relief…)  Our second container is due to arrive early next week.  We’ve put a plan in place to get the word out and are now working on World Peace Day activities and looking ahead to what happens after World Peace Day.  It’s hard to believe, but after we distribute the remaining crutches and take a vacation, we actually have something even more monumental planned for the coming year.  Stay tuned and let’s prove that it is possible to change the world!
