It started last year as an idea: How can we get everyone on the planet to show peace and compassion towards one another on the same day and if possible at the same time? What would happen?

Do you want to find out? Please join us on September 9, 2009 (09/09/09) on Twitter and share your thoughts via video, pictures and blogs about what peace and compassion means to you.

Here’s a little bit of background about BecomePeace 090909 and why we want you to participate!

Here’s Lita (aka EcoDiva on Twitter) talking about why we chose September 9, 2009 for this event.

We would like for you to list in our comments (until we can figure out a better way to do this) where you’re going to be tweeting about peace, love and compassion on September 9, 2009 so we can retweet it on Twitter. If you are hosting a music event on that day, let us know. If you’re raising money for an animal charity on this day, tell us about it. Lots of tweeting going on already. Give us your Youtube, Ustream, Twitter contacts so we can get the word out there about what you’ve decided to do.

Someone asked us, Is it possible that we can get over one million people following @BecomePeace2009 and tweeting about peace, love and compassion on this day? We believe in thinking big and shooting for the stars so our answer is “yes”. Just imagine the possibilities. Namaste.
