Happy 2011!
Let us kick off the new year with an excerpt from a poem written by the late great Dr. Robert Muller, a world reknowned peace advocate who passed away on September 20, 2010:
Render others peaceful Be a model of peace Irradiate your peace Love passionately the peace Of our beautiful planet
On behalf of everyone here at Global Visionaries, may peace be with you for all of 2011!
