Please stand with us for five minutes of silence at 1 p.m. your local time on May 13, 2007, in your local park, school yard, gathering place, or any place you deem appropriate, to signify your agreement with the statement below. We ask you to invite the men who you care about to join you. We ask that you bring bells to ring at 1 p.m. to signify the beginning of the five minutes of silence and to ring again to signify the end of the period of silence. During the silence, please think about what you individually and we collectively can do to attain this world. If you need to sit rather than stand, please feel free to do so. Afterwards, hopefully you and your loved ones can talk together about how we can bring about this world

What a thoughful gesture. If everyone does this hopefully it will draw some attention to the critical condition our entire ecosystem including mankind is threatened with. Thanks Launi

This is really an original idea, which is so refreshing these days, and these women certainly have the organizational skills to see it through.

I am particularly touched and enthused by their vision of a world-wide movement, and their will to make it so, as shown by their care to translate the message into so many languages ! Just incredible, persian, hindi, czech, etc etc ! The French translation is very good, but unfortunately you cannot access the Italian !
