The girl who silenced the world for 5 minutes – Video
Free Relationship Advice, from Relationship-Oneness.com
I came across this video the other day and immediately knew I wanted to share it. I hope you can find the six minutes to watch it. I’ve been thinking about writing some sort of commentary, however the video does a find job of speaking for itself. This speech was given in 1992, at the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro,the girls name is Severn Cullis-Suzuki and her speech was given at a UN assembly in Brazil, in this video she is 12 years old.
What did I love about this short video. First and foremost I admire her sincerity and courage at 12 years old. My favorite line… “if you don’t know how to fix it, then stop breaking it.” This video really help to put things into perspective, for me it does anyway. It reminds me to take notice of what I’m really concerned about; and is it really that big of a deal. Taking the focus off of the ego self, and placing back onto the whole self, which includes all of life.
I would love to hear your feedback with regard to this video, and how it might have adjusted your “frame of reference.” What did you enjoy most? Namaste.
