This What It's All About

This is what WHAT'S all about, you ask?

IT.

All of it. Everything of any real importance, when it comes to international relations. This reminds me of the Dalai Lama's visit to Seattle in April, when he was asked what he would do to bring about world peace. He said he'd just put all the leaders of all the countries together on an island to vacation together and have fun as individuals and families, insisting that once they got to know each other in that way, working together as a community of individuals, they'd be much more willing and likely to work together as politicians and countries when faced with political crises.

This video exemplifies the same spirit of individual and communal unity that is so incredibly powerful. Really, it's the politics and the politicians that divide us, I decided. Hell, the PEOPLE are...

...the people are... Well, just watch.
