Our Purpose
Our intent is to provide you with timely news and resources from the leading edge of human achievement. The conventional media focuses almost entirely on individual or collective human failure and dysfunction. While this represents only a tiny fraction of the human experience, it dominates the media and therefore molds our individual thoughts and collective consciousness. Since we know that "form follows thought," it is only logical that as we continue to collectively focus on failure, we will continue to create more of the same.

The world faces many challenges and it is important to acknowledge these and deal with them. The conventional press and most of the alternative press are doing an excellent job of bringing these to our attention.

Our intent is to report on events, activities, achievements, project and people who represent the highest and best of human endeavor and what we can achieve, both individually and collectively. We believe that this represents the true nature of who we are.

Our purpose is not only to inform and inspire, but to provide cross cultural models from around the world as to what people are doing to solve world problems and create new options.

Positive News completely shares these aims and objectives with those of GVN. We see the Global Village as those throughout the world who have seen a vision of a new era and are dedicated into bringing it into reality.

Positive News was handed the guardianship of Global Village News and Resources in summer of 2004. Although we would like to continue to make the archives available to subscribers and readers we would like to point out that stories published prior to issue 89 were not under our editorial guidance and would like to make a distinction that these are not necessarily a reflection of the current opinions of our editorial team.



Soul Food

Children Of Light - by Alan Cohen

The time of the Great Awakening is come. You who have chosen to lift your eyes from darkness to the light are blessed to see the advent of a new day on the Planet Earth. Because your heart has yearned to see real peace where war has reigned, to show mercy where cruelty has dominated, and to know love where fear has frozen hearts, you are privileged to usher real healing to your world.

The Planet Earth is a blessing to you. She is your friend and your mother. Always remember and honor your relationship with her. She is a living, loving, breathing being, like unto yourself. She feels the love that you give as you walk upon her soil with a happy heart.

The Creator has chosen your hands to reach the lonely, your eyes to see innocence in the guilty, and your lips to utter words of comfort to the wounded. Let pain be no more! You have wandered in dark dreams for too long: Now you must step into the light and stand for what you know is true. The world has suffered not from evil, but form the fear of the acknowledgment of good. That fear must be ended now, forever, and it is within your power to do so.

No one can find yourself but you. All of your answers are within. You must now teach the lessons you have learned. Your understanding has been given not only for yourself, but to guide a sore and tired world to a place of rest in a new consciousness.

Here before you is your vision come true. Here is your answer given you, a song to soothe a weary soul and make it new again. Here is the bridge that joins you to your brothers and sisters. Here is your Self. Look gently upon your Self, and allow yourself to be filled by the light you have been seeking. True love comes from yourself, and with such a power your every thought is a blessing to the entire universe.

All areas of your life will be healed. You will shine with a golden splendor that speaks of the One who created you in wisdom and glory. The past will dissolve like a dark dream, and your joy will be so brilliant that you will have no recollection of the night.

Go forth then and be a messenger of hope. Point the way to healing by walking in gratefulness. Your brothers and sisters will follow, and as you pass beyond the portal of limitation you will be united and reunited with all who seem to be lost. There is no loss in the Creator. Choose the path of forgiveness and you will weep tears of joy for the goodness you find in all.

Go forth and live the life of the radiant soul that you are. Glorify the Creator in your every deed. You are important, you are needed and your are worthy. Never allow the dark cloak of fear to hide the light from your view. You were not born to fail; you are destined to succeed. The hope of the world has been planted in your heart, and you are assured of success as you stand for the One who created you.

This then is the healing of the Planet Earth. All of your doubts and fears can be set aside as you know that the healing will come through the love in your heart.
