Beloveds,
I Breathe Deeply and awaken gratefully into the New Day. I hear the pitter patter of Rain reminding me
to dress for the weather. I breathe and
decide to wear something red so that I can walk with strength and gently share
love with all I meet. I breathe again
and select a mustard golden scarf filled with sunshine and rainbows. My joy is instant. I breathe deeply again. Today
I will walk patiently, and appreciate the Nurturing Rain that has come
with the Blessing New Day! How Will You
Dress for the Weather?

Dress for the Weather!
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."

Our Collective Destiny
Beloveds,
"To be free is not merely to cast off one's chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others." said President Barack Obama quoting the great statesman Nelson Mandela!
My question to all of you this Yom Yippur is "Do you have the courage to live these words?
Can you let go of the fear in your heart and "live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others"?
Breathe Deeply. Ask for clarity. Your answer will help define Our Collective Destiny!

Walk In TRUTH-- ANYWAY!
Beloveds,
People may ignore you because of where you come from, your social status or your race. Even your birth family may choose to close their hearts to you when you have been baptized in Love. Walk In Truth Anyway. Truth is the only way to live as a Being of Love. Knowing, speaking and being the Truth is how we live Our Purpose. Everyone has a purpose and a contribution to make on this planet. It is something that only You can do, or say or write in the fabric of time. Even when it seems like all the familiar doors have closed, please don't give up. Walk in Truth Anyway! Your destiny lies beyond the jealous or petty. Your Destiny Resides In the Heart of Love.

Honor the Harvest
Beloveds,
When I offer my best without expectation, the Uni-Verse teaches me through the songs of appreciation and gratitude that travel through the wind and whistle in the cool breeze of the new fall season. Musical notes of the song are written in the Autumn sky of green, gold and orange mixed with red and purple, like a rainbow bridge that allows me to dance on pale blue clouds. My heart beats to the rhythm of exalted joy whenever I have the courage to listen, sing, live, share and honor the Harvest of the Eternal Love Song!

Redemption
Beloveds,
There have been times when I have I failed, fallen or forgotten my own greatness and capacity for joy. Still, because my heart was fragile and broken open, I have faced what I feared and I live listening; hoping to grow wise! Every day I say thank for the difficult lessons. Today I Breathe slowly and deeply; in and out! With each breath, I pray for the Redemption of Humanity. I ask to remember to step gently, and to offer my gifts tenderly. I ask for personal and Collective Redemption. I choose to open my heart and embrace Humanity, and Our Sentient Earth Family with Love!

Gifts of Chance
Beloveds,
Life is most often a mystery, waiting for us to unwrap the gifts of Chance. I Breathe deeply and move forward knowing that the one gift I will be asked to open will require me to be more adaptable! Today I embrace Life's beautiful mystery knowing that I am willing to be flexible and adaptable as I accept the precious gifts of Chance!

Look At US!
Beloveds,
No matter our culture or religion, throughout time the Wise Ones have told us to "Love thy neighbor as thyself".
They have asked us to "treat the stranger as an honored guest." We have been told to respect others and to honor their beliefs and cultural traditions so that we learn to bring Peace to the World.
But Look At Us!
Some of us use our gifts not to share Peace or Prosperity but to demean other cultures and promote confusion, suffering or even war!
Dis-respect, envy, greed, and war will never bring Peace.
Only listening deeply and acting with Courage, Humility, Compassion, Forgiveness, Mercy, Patience and Respect will bring the Good Change We Need.
These are the tools of LOVE that will allow us and our Children to prosper with Hope and Integrity as we meet heart to heart; and work to build New Bridges to a World of Peace and Prosperity where we Honor and Respect All the People of the Earth!

Integrity, Goodness and Compassion sing to me with Hope.
Today I listen, talk, walk, sing and dance as a Peacemaker!

Singing the Blues
Beloveds,
Have you ever sung the Blues?
Blues come in all colors.
The Deep Purple Red Blues once took me
on a solemn journey
where I almost lost Faith
but I sure did learn Humility.
I thank Heaven for the Calm Pale Sky Blues
that I discovered when I learned to Breathe
in the air of Forgiveness and Gratitude
as I honored the integrity of my heart.
Then I learned the Yellow Green Blues
that brought me Hope and taught me
something of Joy, Patience, and Compassion.
And, I flowed with rhythm of my heart
when I danced Orange Royal Blue Pink Blues.
Life is a Beautiful Teacher.
While Breathing and Living,
We All Learn to Sing the Many Blues!
What Blues Will YOU Sing Today?

WORDS
Beloveds,
Words can help or harm.
Words can be a healer,
a sword, a gun
or a drone that kills
many innocent children.
I am learning to use
words to uplift, and heal.
Some days I say less and do more.
Ultimately,
I try to offer encouragement,
hope and joy.
Today,
I choose my words and actions carefully---
with Courage, Compassion and Love!

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."

Step Forward
Beloveds,
Because I know that All things start with a Breath, I take moments throughout my day to Breathe Deeply and express my Gratitude. I listen to the rain dance on trees, rooftops and windows. I Breathe and hear the Voice of Faith calling. I Breathe again, deeply four times and feel a song of Hope in my heart. "I will live with integrity and courage, respecting All. I will honor my good dreams with hard work. I will live life joyfully; share my gifts and stand for Peace. I Breathe Deeply, and when I am ready, I Step Forward into the Beautiful Day!

Let Love Lead!
Beloveds,
I took my belabored heart to the Tree of Wisdom and cried for the children of every conversation and act of war where Greed and Destruction took center stage with Hate, and tried to pillage even the Universal Heart of Love. Much was destroyed and many were harmed needlessly. Wisdom they say, always speaks through the Heart. We must have the Courage to see, speak and act with Wisdom. The ability to create a safe world for All Children of All Cultures is possible only by allowing Love to Lead. Let Love Lead!
