Beloveds,
I wonder if you too are grappling
with the big questions of truth and justice.
I find no good reason for poverty,
homelessness or starvation.
I find no good reason for greed
or continuing acts of violence
against eachother.
I look for solace and joy.
I see hope in the eyes of our children.
Today, as I move beyond dogma
and embrace the teachings of my heart
I find solace in a social activism that heals
and moves us collectively forward in love.
Will you join me?

FInding Solace
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."
