PLANET HEART
One Planet. One Race. One Heart.
Are All
If one takes the letter, h, from the end of the word Earth and moves it to the beginning, it forms the new word,
Heart. This is Planet Earth, yet, we are also living on Planet Heart. Where our hearts beat as one - We Are
One. We just have to remember and wake up. Some of us are and it is our job to spread this energy and do
things that make a difference. Many of us, like We, The World, are working to make the world a better place for
us and for our children. We are living in very auspicious times. People in spiritual communities and organizations,
and the New Age Movement already know this, but we need to wake up the others who are still sleeping. The
rate of awareness is increasing. So, this is the meaning behind the name, Planet Heart. As a Project of We, The
World, we aim to extend their mission and believe that Planet Hearts mission is at the heart and core of that of
We, The World. The Mission of Planet Heart is to help cultivate a world of peace, helping to bring all humans
together in harmony on a global scale and to realize that We Are All One.
Dear Community,
Last year I finally produced and manifested a long-time vision of mine - an annual earth day event
and also formed Planet Heart to do events such as this. I anticipate to do more events like this, and
really just want to bring people together to realize our oneness and produce extraordinary events. We
have this life that we are living, and we get to be in the driver seat. There are so many, many avenues
that we take and things happen. It is how we respond to them. We are what we think and we do what
we choose. If we put our minds to something, we really can do anything, even walk on hot coals. Yes,
I just came back about three weeks ago from Tony Robbins Unleasing the Power Within, and did a
firewalk. I got to tell you, that was incredible, imagine 3300 people from all walks of life, young and
old, doing this walk. I have to admit, I was alittle skeptical but after being trained by Tony to feel and
think differently, I was ready to do it and when I did it, it was a piece of cake, and I didnt feel anything.
It was a big WOW for me. You ever have WOW moments in your life?? I love WOW moments, as I
also love FLOW moments, when we are in the FLOW of your lives and everything seems to be in
synch with what we do, who we meet, what happens, you know, synchronicity. In 2005, I was in the
hospital for a major surgery, with a life-threatening large-sized benign tumor, acoustic neoroma, which
made me deaf in my left ear and retaught me the value of life, its preciousness and the importance of
having gratitude for what we do have. I am just one of many of us who experience all kinds of big
circumstances which give us a chance to really look at our lives and the lives around us and go to the
next level of being alive and understanding that phenomenon. That is, if we choose to see it in that
light. We are living in tremendous times, we must really take time to really take in the NOW moments
(I am still working on that myself), of our daily living its not easy sometimes. There are so many
energy shifts going on today, and we are all feeling it in different ways.
Thank you so much for coming and being part of the 2nd Annual World Peace Earth Day Celebrations

The Sacred Run film reflects indigenous people as keepers of profound spiritual knowledge;
wisdom that has endured and is now being shared with non-native individuals searching for
their own spiritual identity. Not only does the film portray Native Indian culture but we hear
from non-natives who are bridging Native spirituality with their own roots. The Run is an action
which can precipitate the participants individual spiritual journey the transformation of the
individual becomes the key to peace. Dragonfly Films has made an inspirational film which
reveals the spirit of the Run to further the message of peace and the importance of returning

First Nation people from North America and Japan, joined by volunteers from 13 countries traveled

camera in hand, to present a remarkable physical and spiritual journey of a diverse group of all
ages who carried the simple message, that All Life is Sacred. A stunning visual portrait of
individuals committed to promoting peace, encouraging respect for the earth and all life, and to
sharing the rich cultural diversity of the human race.
"Not only is SACRED RUN a film that teaches and entertains, it is also a movie that takes you on a
most inspiring physical adventure and then launches you out of the theatre or off the couch convinced
that you can save the planet."
Ezra Soiferman, Filmmaker, (MAN OF GREASE, TREE WEEKS) Montreal, Quebec
This film is more a meditation than a film and like all potent meditation, it purifies the one who
watches it. Without the journey, what is life?
