 I am taking the time today to  wish peace on Earth. To wish the end of all wars, wherever they are. It saddens me to see Russia invading Ukraine.  I just wanted to share that the theme music of Alive was composed last year  by an Ukranian musician. Tim Moor  did that to celebrate the 30 years of independence of Ukraine. I hope that we all will take a moment of reflection here: Peace on Earth.Theme music created by Tim Moor.

Alive is going through a process of  deep transformation. Some would even say metamorphosis.  For this reason we revisit the Butterfly Story  as narrated on Elisabet Sahtouris website. Elisabet bases Butterfly on the book by Norie Huddle who believes humanity urgently needs a new “myth for our times” to inspire us and give us hope for the future. Metamorphosis of the butterfly makes a good metaphor for the great changes globalization, in the sense of world transformation is bringing about. Enjoy current episodes while we prepare Season 2 with lots of storytelling!  Find @credko on Twitter.  See  alivepodcast.netThank you,Cristina Redko, PhDKey Sources:See Elisabet Sahtouris website: http://www.sahtouris.comNorie Huddle.
