A Global Work of Love That Begins With Two Small Words: You Matter

Dear friends:

The world needs kindness. It's better to be always kind than to be always right.

The world needs humility. It's better to leave space for others than to fill the room with self.

The world needs you because you are a human being of inherent and infinite worth.

Join me in the fifth global You Matter Marathon - No Running Required.

One-by-one we will make genuine personal connections spreading the essential message of kindness and love contained in these two small words.

The You Matter Marathon was founded in 2016 by Cheryl Rice, a positive psychology practitioner in the United States. So far, over 1.5 million You Matter cards have been shared by 100,000 people in 78 countries. This November, the goal is to share two million cards!

Participants receive 30 You Matter cards to share for free, and are invited to join a You Matter Facebook group to connect with other Marathoners.

Thanks for helping Cheryl with a great movement.

Fabulous Foreword by His Holiness the Dalai Lama for Dr. Post's new book about synchronicity, God and Love on Route 80: The Hidden Meaning of Human Connectedness

"An excessive focus on materialism and the neglect of spiritual values such as love, compassion, and generosity have, I believe, prevented us from realizing our potential as a human society. While technological and scientific advancements have contributed to a better quality of life for many, the lack of attention to our inner lives is reflected in the persistent and pervasive emotional troubles and the growing socio-economic and ideological divides at the root of so many of the problems affecting us today.

Various spiritual traditions and thinkers have, for millennia, recognized that an understanding of the nature and function of consciousness, and an appreciation of the interdependent nature of our world, are fundamental to human flourishing.

However, it is only in recent decades that modern science has begun to address these topics. It has been my privilege to explore these ideas with leading physicists, neuroscientists and other thinkers. It has been very encouraging to me to see the real possibility for a convergence of science and spirituality to benefit humanity.

As there is still much work to be done in this area, I'm pleased to see that the noted author Dr. Stephen Post is addressing themes such as consciousness and interconnectedness in his new book, God and Love on Rt 80. It is my hope that this book will contribute to the flourishing of humanity."
