One day on Earth

Happy Earth Day! As part of the earth day celebration, UNDP hosted a viewing of the movie "One day on Earth" here in Laos and around the globe. The video was made from compiled footage filmed in more than 80 countries on the day 10/10/10. It was really interesting. A tiny peak into life around the earth.

It struck me how fortunate I am to have been born in the US. It's so easy to take for granted, as it is a given in my life. I highly recommend watching the movie if you can and considering the bigger picture. It's so easy to become complacent and overly occupied with our own worries and day to day life. Taking the time to realize that we are all interconnected and seeking the same things in life, even when we live in what seems like completely different worlds.
