With dire headlines constantly in the news, it’s easy to feel the world is becoming darker. But if you look close enough, you can see the emergence of unity experiments, all over the globe.
These are creative thinkers, artists, and activists that have come together to promote peace and mutual understanding. Once such group is the Global Oneness Project, who in their own words, are dedicated to:
“…exploring how the radically simple notion of interconnectedness can be lived in our increasingly complex world. We’re traveling the world interviewing people and highlighting organizations that show the diverse ways oneness is expressed in the fields of sustainability, conflict resolution, spirituality, art, agriculture, economics, indigenous culture and social justice.”
The above short film is their flagship piece, answering the question “What would a global transformation look like?”

Fantastic video. The USA is definitely going through a transformation. Unfortunately (or fortunately), other countries are getting caught up in it. Perhaps will think about what is truly important. I know have. Perhaps this is why I have not connected with anyone in AZ. I signed up with Meetup.com to make some new friends. However, most of the Meetup groups are centered around drinking and eating — two American staples.
I like the part about staying out of the supermarkets on the weekend. Many people (Americans) search for instant gratification from material things. When those items disappear, they feel like it's the end of the world. Now wonder our country is going through a tumultuous period. Maybe we'll wake up…hopefully sooner than later!

There is a shift happening. However, there is much of the old paradigm model that must also shift, which is what we are going through now. Out of our greatest struggles comes our most profound revelations and cause for change for a better place from where we were to where we are going. "We are One" concept does not mean we lose our individual indentities but that we acknowledge and accept all of our identities as equal and valid. We are the multitude expressions of the one great idea… Life. Thanks for sharing this, Ian. It's so perfect for right now.
