"White Math highlights the magic number 12"

"If just 12 more people a day get clean water and quality calories, starvation will be zero by 2012. Subtract calories from obese countries, add them to starving countries and both survive" JonathanC - WhiteMath.com creator

Presentation concept by JonathanC WhiteMath.com

THE FOLLOWING IS OPTIONAL... 

I shattered my spine in an accident in 1983. I was confronted with the fact that if I moved - I'd never walk again. My spine was described as being like a chocolate bar - smashed on the end with a mallet. Back then, I faced the real possibility I might never have children...

I made a personal pledge. If I recovered, I'd make a difference to the planet - a big difference!

While I'm not really a spiritual person, I prayed. And I recovered fully. I have three wonderful children and a wonderful family. I've already won the lottery. No riches can ever compare with the treasure of being alive and being healthy.

So the reason you're reading these words is simple.

My personal vision is to one day be able to live off the proceeds of my teachings. Yet not to pursue wealth. And definitely not to pursue the fame I chose to avoid. My goal is to continue to help feed starving children. Having undertaken voluntary work for both World Vision and Red Cross, I want to be able to volunteer my time to helping others - those most desperately in need. Those dying from a lack of clean water and calories while others die from overeating...

White Math really isn't my cause. It came to me, yet so what? You may call it amazing, and I suppose it is. Yet to me, it's just a stepping stone. I've never been one to follow the rules, yet I've always been the person to demonstrate compassion. White? It's every colour as one. All races, perhaps dedicated with the single minded focus of eradicating starvation. White? It's a frequency. Some call it love. Some call it energy...

Maybe 1 person in 100 might read this private message. Yet YOU'RE THAT ONE!

What a privilege if I'm able to get you to open your mind to new possibilities whether it be math or other ideas. The purpose of life is happiness. We find it through self discovery and learning. And love.

So yes, do sign up for the White Math lessons and ebook. You will have fun and you will discover new ways to approach numbers, learning and much much more. I expect you'll be surprised at what's in store for you. No doubt I'm going to surprise myself as well!

Yet whatever you decide to do, please pause long enough to cherish those things and people in your world that really matter. You have so much to be grateful for. Acknowledge that fact and you'll be wealthy. Remember if you see someone without a smile, give them one of yours - you'll feel alive!

I really hope you join me in this journey of discovery.

Please feel welcome to invite a friend along for the ride. (There's a form below for this.)  Because if I'm to make a REAL difference, I'm going to need your help spreading the word about this site...

From the moment we're born, our days are numbered - make them count!

Thank you!

Your friend and White Math teacher...

P.S. The number 12 has a certain magic about it. If just 12 extra people a day were provided with clean water and some quality calories, starvation would be eliminated by 2012.
