The Future Isn't Hopeless; It's Just Badly Conceived

The world at its worst needs us at our best! That's the message of IT'S GETTING BETTER--a DVD of hope.

To give this message the widest possible audience, Star's Edge International has released "It's Getting Better" with subtitles in 14 languages. Asian languages include Japanese, Korean and Chinese. European languages include Dutch, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese and Hungarian. Nordic languages include Swedish and Icelandic. English and Hebrew complete the set.

Harry Palmer, author of LIVING DELIBERATELY and the Avatar Course materials explains: "Our collective attitudes and beliefs shape the future as much or more than current event."

This is an idea that is experientially encountered on Palmer's Avatar Course, which promotes personal and social change through increased personal responsibility.

"Ready or not," said Harry, "the future is pulling us forward. If we keep on going the way we are going, we'll keep on experiencing what we're experiencing. And, if we keep on going long enough, it is almost certain that someday we're going to arrive somewhere, but is it going to be anywhere that anyone wants to be?"

Palmer, speaking before an international group of students, continued, "Consciousness is our tool, our gift. We've often used it in competitive, brutish ways, but we can also use it in wise and compassionate ways. We need to brighten the future up a little bit. If you want life to improve, there is some value in creating our expectations with the attitude: It's Getting Better."

Palmer's low key, often humorous presentation is welcome advice to a world waking up to the idea that our expectations do not have to be based solely on the past, but can also be based on deliberate choices.
