Share Something Original Day


During my morning musing of Facebook this morning I stumbled across this Event.  I love the idea and would love to see it grow, so I am doing my bit to spread the word.

 

Share Something Original Day


 

According to the Mayan Calendar July 25th is recognized as the "Day out of Time," a day to honour the vital role that art & culture plays in creating peace & harmony.

 

 On this day, I propose that we collectively enact a creative takeover of Facebook, sharing only things that we have ourselves created.

 

 Instead of the usual quotes and petitions and inspirational photos, let us plunge into the inexhaustible wells of our own creativity. Let us use our own voices, speak from our hearts, summon up our bravery and share something original.

 

 Whether it is a poem you wrote, a photo you took, a song you recorded or simply a status updating the beauty that is rushing in at you from all sides, make the pledge to let your uniqueness be felt and seen on this day by your community.

 

 In the words of Russian artist and humanitarian, Nicholas Roerich, "Where there is Peace, there is Culture; Where there is Culture, there is Peace."

 

 Feel free to post your creations on this Event Page or simply share them as your own status with the hashtag #ShareSomethingOriginal

 

 Time is Art,

 Toko-pa
