This framework was developed by the United Nations and co-operating world agencies, such as the World Health Organization, UNICEF, the International Labor Organization, the UN Development Program, the World Bank system, the UN Fund for Population Activities, UN Habitat, the UN Regional Commissions, as well as by the recently established UN Council of Youth, the World Agency for the Elderly, the High Commissioner for the Handicapped, the UN Population Agency (incorporating the UN Fund for Population Activities), the International Migration Agency, and the World Peoples and International Associations Agency.

| | Happy Grandparents day this Sunday!
From Robert
Dear Grandparents of the world,
Happy Grandparents day this Sunday!
How great it is to remember Marian McQuade, mother of 15, grandmother of 40 and great-grandmother of 3, who convinced the White House and President Jimmy Carter in 1978 to proclaim National Grandparents Day on the Sunday after Labor Day. It received unanimous Congressional approval...
Today I can appreciate my own Grandchildren. I have 9 (six boys and three girls). What a gift it is to be a grandparent.
This grandparents Day I dream that: - the grandchildren will never be drafted in any army on Earth - they will become happy parents who will give us great grand-children!
Please dear grandparents in the world, on this day we have so much to teach our beloved grandchildren and so that they too will become loving co-workers with us for a unique, peaceful Paradise Earth.
I send you my deep Love, Robert Muller
PS In the chapter, Of Daily Blessings, I mention the worlds population at 4 billion which it was when I wrote the chapter and as you know, the world population is now over 6 billion.
Happy Grandparents Day from Barbara too who is happy to announce her daughter is pregnant with twins and soon we will have 11 grandchildren! * |
