Happy birthday Robert! Chris Sent from my BlackBerry® wireless handheld --
Happy Birthday Robert: Your proposal to move the UN from New York to Costa Rica is marvelous. My memory of Costa Rica dates back to 1959 when I walked from Progreso, Panama to La Cuesta, CR (because the road was not complete then. I felt a sense of peace as I passed through Costa Rica on my way to Nicaragua. Locating the UN in Costa Rica would change the entire venue of the UN, freeing it from U. S. dominance and making it a true uniter of nations. I have been inspired since the very founding of the UN in Dumbarton Oaks and have always looked for a peaceful world. Thank you for your dedication and daily words of encouragement. When we weep for the destruction and killing of innocent civilians in these wars as we do for our american soldiers we will have inched our way to feeling the pang of wars destruction.

Dear Robert: I do want to send you good wishes on your upcoming birthday!!! I started recieving good morning world this winter and it has been a great great gift. I have always dreamed of peace in my heart and known it is possible. Yet, I have also let my own failures weaken me. I am learning now I must immediately forgive myself and all those around me, and put all my energies toward acting in the way i know is right in my heart. Thank you so much for sharing your vision - with love and determination. If you had been timid what would have been gained? Your vision gives me strength to carry and care for my own. I am a single mom who is starting a Montessori School in Montana. Lots to learn and I am so lucky to be able to do it! I now also have a dream of traveling to Costa Rica to the University for Peace. I wish you the happiest day, knowing all the love that surrounds you. Bev Morse -- Happy Birthday! Dear Robert: Happy, Happy Birthday to you and may God's blessings continue to shine on you. The good that you have done in the world is incalculable and will live on forever. As a member of the School of Ageless Wisdom in Arlington, Texas for many years I had the privilege of meeting you in person several times and also talked with Barbara on the telephone once regarding an immigration matter for a friend of hers. I now live in East Texas in the country surrounded by beautiful pine trees and am so grateful to have an opportunity to get acquainted with Mother Earth. Was also thrilled to be included as an author along with you and others I greatly admire on Henry Guy's Visions for Humanity website. We all pray that there are now enough of us on this great earth to finally make a big difference in the way that people see life and all events and therefore change the quality of humanity's actions. Once again, very best wishes on your 84th birthday and may you celebrate many more.

Dear Robert, As I sit here working at the University for Peace with the students, I marvel at what you helped to create. I remember the time you showed my husband and me your bench of dreams and we made wishes. I often sit on a bench of dreams as I am counseling students about their dreams of taking what they are learning out to the world through their work. Also, as a watercolor artist, I love the natural beauty that surrounds me. It is truly paradise. Thank you!

We envision you being surrounded and in-filled with all of the Joy, Hope, Vision and Blessing that you have so imparted to us - along with the thousands and thousands of others touched by your work and spirit. You may not remember who we are - but this is of no matter. Your life endeavors have laid the foundation for many and have strengthened our own. We now have our own Bench of Dreams and our work is in encouraging others to envision the highest future possible for humanity and this sacred planet - indeed Paradise Earth! I attach a few photos. One of Roger and I in New Mexico - Dreaming the Big Dream of a Loving Humanity! One of our family with our 2 daughters Lara and Taran - carriers of the flame into the next generation! And finally a photo of Dorothy MacLean - now 87 who is currently teaching at Findhorn for 6 weeks before her return to Issaquah, Washington. Dorothy especially wants me to pass on her special regards. Dorothy and I have fond memories of staying with you and Barbara in Costa Rica in March 2003 - via Elinore Detiger. And Roger and I treasure our brief visit with you there in May 2005 (when you appropriately passed The World Joke Book on to Roger). I hope our paths will cross again when we next visit Santa Barbara. The last time we were there we could not see you or Barbara as your garage had just burned down! No doubt like the Phoenix it has risen form the ashes! And now? All good health, abundance of energy, love, joy and ever more spreading of your precious wisdom. Happy Day! Katherine (also on behalf of Roger Collis and Dorothy MacLean) -- Dear and most respected Robert Mueller, Wishing you the happiest and most joyful birthday ever, 84 glorious years of visionary leadership. Thank you so much ro what you have put out there in the Universe. Your dream(s) WILL come true, because Creator is behind everything you envision and have accomplished so far. Your star is shining brightly and we are seeing it and envisioning with you. Louise Taylor CorUnum OneHeart Centre Victoria, BC Canada PS. I first met you at the Human Unity Conference in Boston (circa 1980?) The King of Zululand and his entourage were there as well. You related the story of your bringing bicycles across the border from Strasbourg over to Germany right under the noses of the Gestapo. I fell for you at that moment. My grandmother Louise, also was from Strasbourg. She married my grandfather who was from Durlach, Germany just across the border. When she was pregnant with my father she crossed the channel over to England in the event that the baby would be a boy. She was a Freethinker as they were called in those days and was well aware that if the baby was a boy he would be under military conscription in France when came of age. Not wanting to risk that, she went over 'to the other side' and Maurice was instantly a British subject, free of Damocles' sword over his head. When the First World War broke out, my grandparents were repatriated to Germany. Because he could speak fluent French, my father at the age of six, became a cigarette-runner in exchange for chocolate for the French prisoners of war. He of course did not understand why his friends who could speak French and gave him chocolate were 'the enemy'. It did not make sense to him, nor did it ever make sense to have your friends being called enemies. As a matter of fact, Jesus said, call your enemies friends. But that is an aside. My grandmother died at the tender age of forty, of kidney failure. My grandfather immigrated to the United States and settled in Queens, New York, bringing with him his daughter Lucienne (my aunt) and son Maurice (my father). In the years of the depresion (1927-1931) my father was unemployed and desperate I might add. He admitted to me once that he contemplated suicide at that time. At this lowest of low points in his life, he remembers meeting an East Indian gentleman in the restroom of a restaurant on Third Avenue. This person told him that he would be going on a trip soon and that things would be better for him eventually. My father, of a quiet and unassuming nature, was given another point of view at that moment that fit in with his belief in the movement called International Workers of the World. It helped him decide to go to Russia where they were inviting skilled workers to teach and work with Russian workers. This was part of Stalin's Five-Year Plans. He met my mother who was born in Charlottenburg, a suburb of Berlin, who was working for a Quaker family in Bushkill Falls, Pennsylvania. She was in New York for a gathering of the Wandervoegel Movement, a philospohical, back-to-nature type cultural philosophy (outlawed by Hitler eventually) being held at my grandfather's house in Queens. There they met, there they decided to go to Russia together, there I was born in Leningrad in January of 1932, all three of us British subjects according to the laws of the Empire. The five year plan was short-circuited when my mother was raped by Russian soldiers, and they decided to return to New York in 1936 where my sister Sonja was born in May. Though the ideology of communism allows for violent social changes where called for, my father in his very nature, was not for force. They supported the Fellowship of Reconciliation who's slogan at that time was "Build Friendships not Warships for National Defence'. Even though my family maintained the language of German in the family, German culture in food, celebrations and reading, we still were British subjects and that to me, an eight year old when Pearl Harbor broke out, was most important. Though we spoke the language of the Axis enenmy, we were not the enemy. |We had the Seal of the Tudor Rose and Lion on our passports to prove it. So much for feeling connected to you through geography, language, and raison d'etre. Second time, I saw your vision in action was in Arlington, Texas, where i attended the first graduation of the Robert Mueller School. It was your World Curriculum in action. I myself bought 'Balanced Begginings' because I was developping a prenatal music course. Now to fast forward, I wish to tell you that here in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada a group of eight people, began a movement to establish a Department of Peace in the Canadian government. Though it is a grass roots movement initiated by two musicians, Anne Mortiffee, originally from South Africa and Shivon Robinsong, founder of the Getting Higher Choir, now numbering well over five hundred present and past members, the Victoria Action Group includes two film-makers, a social anthropologist, a World Federalist, an visual artist, a retired headmaster, another musician (myself) the group is supported by former Foreign Relations minister, Lloyd Axworthy and retired Senator Douglas Roche. The four years that the VAG has been in action, its activities have included sponsoring the 2nd Summit Meeting for the Global Initiative for Departments of Peace held at Royal Roads University in Victoria, with forty foreign representatives being present. The next summit will be held in Japan. On March 15, five days after your birthday, we will be presenting an awareness -raising program at the University of Victoria. Other than some speeches, there will be some singing and circle dancing and food, so that everyone can participate on the very basic of levels. Body, Mind and Spirit all three celebrating. I offer up a toast to you on your birthday for having sustained the vision of Paradise Here On Mother Earth (H.O.M.E.) for so long. Deepest gratitude to and Barara for sustaingin the Vision. Yours, Louise Taylor -- Happy Birthday, Robert! May all of your days bring you many smiles. :0) You are one of my heroes and such a gift to our precious planet. I will always remember and be grateful for the day you came to Laguna Beach and spoke to my CLC students. Such fun! I'm sending you love and blessings. Laia Hansen -- -- "The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen, nor touched...but are felt in the heart." With regards Dinesh Kumar S.N -- It is rare to find one who truly exemplifies what he speaks........... and you are that diamond, my friend. It is felt in the very energy you eminate without a word spoken. You are an inspiration to us all and may your passion for life, earth and the ressurection of humanity be made manifest.

Happy Birthday Robert!!!
Happy Birthday Robert!!! We wish you a Peaceful day, full of Joy, Laughter & Love! Here enclosed is a very 'peaceful' photo a friend of mine sent me in Mississippi. This fawn kept coming into their property with no fear whatsoever, the mama stayed in the woods always keeping an eye on her little one. The horses got use to the fawn coming around and let her come close and 'cuddle up' while eating along w/ them:) We found this precious and thought you would like it. I sent several of these photos a few months ago, you might have received it already. We use it as wallpaper in our computer. Thank you so much to you and Barbara for all the wonderful work and encouragement you do. We love you. Peace, Connie & Tony Day
