Many of you have probably already seen this,

but since my mom sent it to me, I really love my mom, and asked me to share with like minded people I had to post it on DU.
Don't disappoint my mom.

Dear Friends,

I am forwarding this from Susan Skog. She has a new book
out called Peace in our Lifetime. She is very committed to a peaceful
world and step one is to elect John Kerry. Join us for 60 seconds a day.
It may be the most important thing we ever do.

Encourage people to register and vote and place your vote in the
November election. Now this makes sense. Selene

DEAR FRIENDS:
With only six weeks before the Presidential election, I feel compelled to
share this idea. I am an author, activist, and former science writer. I
enjoy the intersection of physics and culture - never more obvious than
this fall.

AND WHAT TODAY'S MOST SAGE SCIENTISTS ARE SAYING IS THAT WHEN WE FOCUS ON
SOMETHING, WE ATTRACT MORE OF IT. SO WITH ONLY SIX WEEKS LEFT, WE NEED TO
FOCUS ON WHAT WE REALLY, REALLY WANT. LET'S JOIN TOGETHER IN THE "60
SECONDS A DAY FOR 6 WEEKS CAMPAIGN."

TO TURN THE TIDE NOW, WE NEED TO DO SOMETHING UNSTOPPABLE. WE NEED A
CRITICAL MASS OF US TO STOP RAILING AGAINST WHAT IS AND REACH FOR WHAT WE
WANT.

WHAT DO WE WANT? We want John Kerry as our next President. Give up
focusing on George Bush. We don't have to agree with him or support him in
any fashion. Instead, we have to turn our thoughts now to something
greater. We have to do something unstoppable. In the legacy of Einstein
and all great thinkers, we have to harness the power of our thoughts to
get the outcome we desire in November.

PARTICIPATE IN THE "60 SECONDS A DAY FOR 6 WEEKS CAMPAIGN." IF ONLY 3
PERCENT OF THE U.S. POPULATION TAKES 60 SECONDS TO DO THIS EXERCISE EVERY
DAY, WE CAN MAKE A MASSIVE DIFFERENCE:

THIS IS HOW IT WORKS: FOR 60 SECONDS EACH DAY visualize John Kerry elected
as our next President of the United States. See the celebrations and
excitement and sense of fulfillment all across America. See yourself
rejoicing with people in your home, neighborhood, and workplace. See us
all rejoicing with people all over the world! See John Kerry being sworn
into office. Feel the hope, joy, and gratitude. Feel it in your hearts.
Believe it is possible. And be sure to vote!

Now, imagine John Kerry restoring greater wellbeing in America. See people
streaming back to work. See young children getting the support they need.
Visualize our teachers, police officers, single mothers, the mentally ill,
and many others getting the help they deserve. See our soldiers coming
home to their families. Imagine our leaders establishing greater trust and
good will with other nations. See peace spreading across the world. See
the Iraq conflict ending. Feel how good it will be for the environment to
be protected and renewed. See hope rising across the world in the hearts
and souls of all of us. See these pictures in your mind for 60 seconds
every day between now and November. Be grateful that you have the gift of
participating in shaping a greater country. Be grateful that you care.
Believe that all this is possible-and more! And be sure to vote! PASS THIS
ON TO SIX MORE PEOPLE: 60 SECONDS A DAY FOR 6 WEEKS!

This sounds great! ;) I doubt it will have any actual effect, but it will certainly make me feel good to do it, and that's what I need this close to the election. I can hardly sleep for nervousness...

I have not been able to sleep well for weeks. I think I'm getting an ulcer, my stomach hurts all the time. I keep getting angry for no reason at all. And I start crying at the drop of a hat, okay I'm always like that.
I cannot wait for November 3rd after Kerry is elected.

It IS conceivable!

It's certainly not a bad thing to picture John Kerry as President at least 60 seconds out of every day since I'd love him as President 24-7. If a segment of the population can picture something as ugly as Armageddon and even work towards acheiving this, I say we picture and work towards something good.

I usually spend at minimum an hour a day like that! :D
Tellyour Mom thanks, and thanks to you as well!

So if I spent a lot of my time daydreaming about a brighter world, my employers will be a little annoyed.

Still, there's hardly a time in the day when I do not know the number of hours till November 2nd. Does that make me Obsessive/Compulsive?

If you could tell me in minutes right off the top of your head how long until JK's inauguration, that'd be kind of OC. :D

That's a little long, and (though I consider myself an optimist) not yet decided. Election is easier. Just calulcate: Midnight today until midnight on November 2nd is

21 days * 24 hours/day = 504.

On the east coast, where midnight is coming first, it's 10:00 am now (if I got it right), so thats 504-10 = 494. There you go :)
