Bingo, Lynda. This is the event and the story of our time, as reluctant as
we are to identify with the new age movement. Don't blame the messengers;
it's Einstein's fault.
Thank you for sharing this. Maybe I'll go to San Luis Obispo this weekend
to see it (and my grandkids.)
Love and blessings,
Jann

Alan called to recommend a film he had just seen. It is a documentary so
not on the big screen, but is being shown in Asheville and Charlotte, NC,
May 6, at art theaters. Check the link to see when it is near you. We
haven't seen it yet and won't be able to get to either of those venues. I
thought others of you might appreciate it as well.

There is another Christian film by the name I AM, so when you google you
have to specify" I AM, the Documentary."
Film maker Tom Shadyac, creator of Bruce Almighty, among other money
makers, sets out on a quest to seek answers to the above questions through
interviewing Desmond Tutu, Howard Zinn, Noam Chomsky and others. Along the way
he's in a traumatizing bike accident and encounters his own mortality which
puts another perspective on his project. He discovers that humans appear
to be hardwired for connection and compassion. He learns that it is not so
much a matter of what we can DO to make the world better, but what we can
BE which calls for a transforming of being. From there action naturally
will follow, he says.
"Shadyac is an engaging and persuasive guide as we experience the
remarkable journey that is I AM. With great wit, warmth, curiosity, and masterful
storytelling skills, he reveals what science now tells us is one of the
principal truths of the universe, a message that is as simple as it is
significant: We are all connected – connected to each other and to everything
around us. “My hope is that I AM is a window into Truth, a glimpse into the
miracle, the mystery and magic of who we really are, and of the basic
nature of the connection and unity of all things..."
Has a familiar ring to it!
Lynda, thanks to Alan
