Beloveds---
Too often, we refuse to compromise.
Just when something great might happen,
our ego takes control and we walk away
with the few precious marbles we have left.
I still my thoughts and let go
of my egoic need for control.
I Breathe Deeply Six Times.
With each breath I feel a
willingness to compromise.
With kindness, I share
my marbles with all who are present.
I Breathe Deeply and offer my sincere humility.
Life then opens a door I hadn't seen.
I Breathe as it opens.
The room is filled with
marble like pearls of Wisdom and Love
that we all can share with JOY!
First I Breathe.

The Joy of Compromise
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."
