Here's today's wonderful news
about a wonderful world!
This
is part of a series of daily reminders that a more wonderful world
is being built from the actions of millions of people, each day. You
are offered examples to explore whenever you would like to be uplifted
and inspired, energized and reassured. This is a wonderful type of world
news!
It seems obvious that we experience what we are paying attention to, so if we want more life-enhancing experiences, we should direct more of our attention to more life-enhancing news, happenings, and stories.
Also,
when we feel life-enhanced, we are radiating, broadcasting those
"vibes" outward, and others are uplifted into resonance, to some degree.
And the more of us radiating, the more others are uplifted. So joy is
service!
In
this series, we emphasize discovering whole groups of people who are
creating a more wonderful world, each in their own way.
You
can add things you find, for others to discover and pay attention to,
via commenting on this post, or any post in the series. You can access a list of links to each post in the entire series by clicking here: https://divinelightchurch.blogspot.com/2020/11/wonderful-world-news-list-of-published.html
DAY 62
This initiative has been going for years. Its mission is profound, especially considering violence against women and children is totally not only acceptable but required in some cultures. And violence by women to men is not unheard of either.
The site is worth browsing for all sorts of good news, including some reflections on masculinity. There are also other related initiatives and information.
"The Spiritual Alliance to Stop Intimate Violence (SAIV) was founded by Riane Eisler and Nobel Peace Prize winner Betty Williamson to break cycles of violence in families and in the family of nations. Ending cycles of violence in families improves quality of life for all of us, since research shows that intimate violence is integrally related to community, national, and international violence.
"SAIV recognizes that a crucial element in any efforts to stop intimate violence is strong faith leadership. Trauma victims, especially from rural, immigrant, and communities of color, are five times more likely to seek the aid of clergy than any other professional.
"SAIV partners with national and international interfaith leaders who are expert in trauma-informed responses to provide tools for effective prevention and response to intimate violence within their own communities."
Now

you will do this day to make the world more wonderful for yourself and
