Beloveds,
Joy is often hidden in yes.
It is part of the story of our lives
that too often we ignore.
We are too busy to listen,
to offer a hug or hold a hand
of a person in pain.
We often miss the miraculous moments
because we are pre-occupied
with work or self or fear.
Today please pay attention
to what is going on around you.
Smile and connect to others.
Call an old friend.
Visit a sick friend.
Say "I love you" to someone
you cherish everyday.
Play a game and read a book
with your child everyday.
Draw a picture, sing a song,
blow some bubbles,
or make an angel in the snow.
Say thank you at least ten times a day.
Say yes to being alive,
living your dream and helping
someone else live their dream.
The time is now.
Let's come together, work together,
forgive eachother, love eachother,
support eachother and live
each day with a willingness to say Yes!

Say YES!
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."
