Gratitude for Attitudes
Changing Our World One Attitude at a Time

Update:  In trying to keep up with all the good things people are doing to change our world, we have concluded that this page is not the best way to help share these wonderful events, ideas, accomplishments, changes, etc.  So, we are in the process of putting together a blog dedicated just to sharing the great ways that people are making changes that benefit Life and all who share in it.  Additionally, we will share events that are orchestrated to Peacefully unite like-minded individuals to increase awareness, voice concerns, and so on. While we are working on this blog setup, please visit us on our "Foundation" and "Grow Green" Facebook pages where we share many of the same things as we find them.  Stay tuned! 


The only way our world will change is if we change it. To do that, we have to put aside our differences and put our focus on what is best for the greater good of humanity and other beings of Life, as well as the Earth herself, and hold that focus as it comes to fruition. We must adopt a “Change Our World” attitude that unwaveringly embraces compassion and real reality rather than succumbing to the perils and Illusions of greed and obsessions with money. This kind of attitude calls for courage and commitment that is not easy in today's world.

There are many of you out there with just such courage, conviction, and attitude. To each of you we express our gratitude. Please maintain your attitude, your courage, your commitment, and your focus. The world needs you. Every being of Life needs you. It takes many drops to make a puddle, and many more to make a sea. Let your drop be one in the sea of change for our world.

Please take a moment to look over this recent list of those who have expressed their attitudes of change, and remember that there are many, many more than just those listed here. If you know of others that you'd like to see added here, please drop us a note and let us know about them. We would be very happy to add them to our “Gratitude for Attitudes” page!  
Thanks to you all!  Keep up the great work!
