The beginnings

The idea for 8 Around the World came in late spring. After trying for four months to find a professional website designer willing to donate his or her time to creating a really usable site, it became clear that this idea was going to have to start from the ground up. The website 8aroundtheworld.com was launched in all its simplicity about a week and a half ago. At this point, all it does is explain. Eventually it is meant to be a gathering place for stories of cooperation and change, to be available in many languages and to link focus partners across the barriers of distance, culture and language.  It is both a gentle way of personally releasing fear and anger and allowing each of us to be at our best each day and a grand experiment.  Who knows what power can be found in the energy of human thought? It is the beginning of a wonderful adventure. Let's enjoy the ride.
