On 9/11/01 humanity saw its worst enemy and cannot bear the pain. Now we have a choice, either go back to our past endless cycle of resentment, hate and revenge journey, or start, a new era of oneness of humanity, a new cycle of universal justice, love and forgiveness journey. Time has come to take steps toward a vision embracing world unity.
Dear Ambassador John D. Negroponte,
For thousands of years, we have been fighting and killing each other
for "this is the only way." For thousands of years, we have been
hiding behind great words and preaching for peace. For thousands of
years, in our temples, churches and mosques, we have been praying for
peace.
For thousand of years, we have been searching the earth and heaven to
discover the truth. The picture of our own understanding of timeless
truth is changing. However, we have refused again and again to accept
that God created us to work together, learn from each other and
accept and appreciate each one who sees different aspects of the same
truth.
Whenever and wherever one human being is innocently killed, we hear
humanity cry and we feel humanity's pain. On 9/11/01 humanity saw its
worst enemy and cannot bear the pain. Now we have a choice, either go
back to our past endless cycle of resentment, hate and revenge
journey, or start, a new era of oneness of humanity, a new cycle of
universal justice,love and forgiveness journey. Therefore, We felt
compelled to sign this petition and write to you to seize this
historical moment as a turning point as an opportunity not to respond
in kind but to heal the blight on oneness of humanity and take steps
toward a vision embracing world unity.
To start the journey, we would like your support in realization of
our only dream for promoting World Unity Day. We envision 9/11 be a
yearly World Unity Celebration Holiday. The United Nations, through
your recommendation, could sponsor such a holiday. Just imagine the
impact such a day could have, a day in which all people of the world
together not only remember heroes of humanity, who sacrificed their
lives for our freedom, but also celebrate a new beginning. A day to
appreciate our differences, beliefs, races, genders, cultures,
interdependencies and taking steps toward a vision of world unity.
This Unity day could contribute whatever proceeds were raised to
eliminate hunger, assure scientific self-sufficiency and promote
peace in the world.
In Oneness,
The Undersigned
