The phrase "One Love" comes from a famous
song by reggae artist Bob Marley. Bob realized that LOVE was in short
supply in today's world and he made it his crusade to change that.
If you have ever been to Jamaica you have likely experienced the power
of applying love to everything you do. Many travelers have been moved
by the Jamaican people's adoption of having pure love in their heart
for all peoples, no matter how different from themselves they are.
One such traveler named Robert Roskind wrote about this very experience.
The first titled "Rasta Heart" which is recommended reading

Cincinnati is a great city and a great place to live.
When you compare Cincinnati to other US cities you will find us "below
average" in many categories that one might feel is important
to health and happiness. It is the goal of One Love Cincinnati to
open the eyes of all Tri-State residents to these shortcomings and
offer solutions that you can implement every day. The goal of this
site is to educate and offer new ideas that will improve your own
quality of life and the quality of the whole earth as well. One by
one we can help Cincinnati to be the healthy and happy place to live
that we all know it can be. Perhaps we can do it well enough that
the rest of the country takes notice. It will take some open mindedness
on your part, and a questioning of what has become the "status
quo".
LOVE - It all starts here. Love is the one ingredient
that can fix so many of todays problems. It's as simple as letting
love be part of every decision you make.
HEALTH - We start with health
because without it, it is very difficult to focus on helping others.
You will learn here how profits of big corporations have led us to
the terrible health problems we now see every day and have come to
believe are a "normal" part of aging or just an unlucky
break.
ATTITUDE - Every waking
moment you can control the attitude of your being. Here are some ideas
to insure you and your family have your attitude in the right place
every day.
LEADERSHIP - We can help
guide our local and state government, civic, and religious leaders
to make changes for the betterment of our communities. Sometimes they
have to be encouraged to act on what is truly important to the people
of this great city and not what is the agenda of big business or "people
of power".
PRO-ACTIVITY - It's easy
to say change is needed but it's more difficult to get out and affect
change. Here are some ideas on how to get you involved.
IMAGE - Our city has had some
bad press coverage in recent years. We need to all work together to
insure that our city is portrayed fairly, accurately and in a positive
light. Here are some ideas to help get Cincinnati's image back in
the positive.
LOVE - Nothing can solve the
worlds problems faster than including Love in every decision.
EVENTS - Only good positive
events listed here that work to bring people of all walks of life
together.
