Beloveds,
How many Children like Imani, Jacob,
Khalid, Sarita, Tenzin or Xiou Min, live in the shadow of freedom with the
dreams of Gwendolyn Brooks or Langston Hughes, still deferred?
How many Children of all Faiths and Cultures
will arrive at Martin's mountaintop to discover only the soot left by guns, drones
and chemical warfare because of our selfishness and greed; and somewhere in our
hearts we did not believe that right would win?
Today, I Breathe Deeply Six Times. In each
breathe I say "Right Will Win!"
I ask that with the help of the Blessed Creator; we All do what we can
to live our Best.
May We Share our Best
with Others so that Right Will Win; and Our Children's, Children's, Children inherit a Loving Earth with No More
Good Dreams Deferred.
I Breathe!

Dreams Still Deferred
Melony McGant, poet, storyteller, humanist and world lover of children lives on HOPE; works to breathe in love, and exhales fear (false expectations appearing real).
She says "Perhaps our current challenges are wake-up calls for our collective awakening to truth."
And she believes that the truth is, there is no need for our constant bickering, our disdain for eachother, for wars and killing, for world hunger, massive disease, for discrimination, subjugation, or oppression.
She maintains that LOVE, even on a rainy day, is the answer to our dreams, our individual quests, and our future collective identity. "If we can learn to value our children, our elders, ourselves, and our Mother EarthHeart, then surely we have the power to impact society and to create a world filled with JOY."
