This coming week is "One World Week" (see www.oneworldweek.org) and also the Interfaith Week of Prayer for World Peace. Whatever your belief or world-view, your actions are important because through your actions you love others and care for the world. Becoming holy - or, if you don't like that religious word, becoming whole and at one with the world - has a direct connection:

"In our era, the road to holiness necessarily passes through the world of action"

Dag Hammarskjöld (1905-1961; Secretary-General of the United Nations 1953-61 who died in a plane crash while trying to bring peace to the Congo. He received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1961).
