PeaceOnEarth Film Festival Chicago A Delight in the Face of World Issues

   

For the past six years, I have served as VP of the board for Peace On Earth Film Festival

sponsored by WBEZ Public Radio running March 19-22nd 2015

Each year, I marvel at the film selection at the Peace On Earth Film Festival.  The hours upon hours the founding team put into choosing representative, high quality films sent in from all corners of the world provide a viewing platform for many little known producers and issues. And, its an important place to showcase and empower controversial, entertaining and insightful stories.

If it's impossible to attend, or even if you do, please consider donating to this amazing organization so that Nick, Melissa and their team can continue to bring this art to the world.   www.peaceonearthfilmfestival.org Chicago Cultural Center - Claudia Cassidy Theatre 78 E. Randolph Street.

Peace Journey Seven Paths to a Charmed Life eBook Release Easter Sunday April 5

Book Launch & One Million Good Deeds Movement

Yes, I am one of those people who still gets up in the morning to read the newspaper: front page, business, international news and I save the softer side of arts and culture till the end of my reading time.  I am in hopes to find some positive inspiration through the work of creatives.  

Writing this book was not a lifelong dream but an expression out of years of living and hoping for the world to get to a kinder and gentler place on it's own.   

So far, my wish for peace in the world hasn't come true. So I set out to go down the path of writing a book about my own life from growing up poor to what I now consider a pretty charmed life.  And how I got here.  On these pages I share personal stories and invite the reader to share their personal stories on internal journey pages.  As we begin to relate to our life's journey, new ideas for helping ourselves and others emerge and I am hopeful that through doing good deeds a more positive world will begin to form.

Peace Journey Seven Paths is based on seven issues in my own life and how I worked through them.  100% of the proceeds from book sales and soon, Kindle and other eBook sales, go to make our work happen for children at the world at www.peacejourney.com, productions by sponsorKIDS Charities 501c3.

In a few days, we will also be launching a crowd funding campaign so please stay tuned.  I believe in social media and the good it can bring to good and original ideas and works.  We all know about the bad it can bring too, but it this case I am working to level the playing field with goodness.  

You can actually purchase the book on Amazon now.  Just go to Amazon and search for Peace Journey Seven Paths to a Charmed Life. And please share with your friends, families, communities, churches and organizations who believe we can get better as a society and as a nation.  

My life's work 's banking on this strategy of love for humanity winning out over all.

Stay Tuned …More info to come on the Peace Journey book, ebook, music songwriting camp and youth adventure trips!

Peace, Jeannette Barcelos Kravitz
