Bravo Beijing!
Would that the World was like Beijing on 8-8-2008,
May the Images permeate our Souls.
The Past brought us to the Now,
May the Now of Beijing become our Future.
Let all the Peoples of the World revel in Play Today,
May the World advance toward this Joyous New Way;
The Way of Truth, Beauty and Goodness.
People of Beijing and all of China - Thank You!

This poem, Bravo Beijing, was inspired by the joyous celebration of the Olympic Opening Ceremonies in Beijing, China on 8-8-2008. China should be proud of the image portrayed to the world - would that this image permeates the soul of the world. It's an example of the struggle and human potential toward truth, beauty and goodness.
"All truth -- material, philosophic, or spiritual -- is both beautiful and good. All real beauty -- material art or spiritual symmetry -- is both true and good. All genuine goodness -- whether personal morality, social equity, or divine ministry -- is equally true and beautiful. Health, sanity, and happiness are integrations of truth, beauty, and goodness as they are blended in human experience. Such levels of efficient living come about through the unification of energy systems, idea systems, and spirit systems. "
"Truth is coherent, beauty attractive, goodness stabilizing. And when these values of that which is real are co-ordinated in personality experience, the result is a high order of love conditioned by wisdom and qualified by loyalty. The real purpose of all universe education is to effect the better co-ordination of the isolated child of the worlds with the larger realities of his expanding experience. Reality is finite on the human level, infinite and eternal on the higher and divine levels." Urantia Paper 2:7.11-12
