Ban-ki Moon: Terrible Contradictions

May we each do our part in working toward a
more sane, just, sustainable, and peaceful world.
We are all related, we are all connected. 
Another world is possible.
Peace ~ Molly


Our world is one of terrible contradictions.
Plenty of food, but one billion people go hungry.
Lavish lifestyles for a few, but poverty for too many others.
Huge advances in medicine
while mothers die every day in childbirth,
and children die every day from drinking dirty water.
Billions spent on weapons to kill people
instead of keeping them safe.

- Ban-ki Moon, U.N. Secretary General
