Celebrating Kwanzaa Day 4

Principle of "Ujaama", a Swahili word for Cooperative Economics! 

That Which We Desire....

Beautiful People, 

How will we navigate and learn to swim if we are fearful of eachother and the water? 

Learning to swim is like trusting that Love can help us let go of our fear of all the other Fish navigating the Waters of Hope. 

Breathe and Exhale Deeply Six Times with Patience and Love.

In Love.  Out Patience with Love. 

In Love.  Out Patience with Love...

Listen to the whispers of Love as they beckon us to imagine ourselves as dolphins-- joyful, playful; kind and Loving. 

Now, with gratitude, commitment and trust... Step into the Waters of Hope. 

Today, Honoring Ujamaa, the Swahili word for Cooperative Economics... We open our hearts with gratitude and trust. 

Let us make a commitment to work for the Good of Our Collective and to Share Resources with the many fish swimming, as We All learn to Navigate the Waters of Hope! 

UJAMAA!  Cooperative Economics! 

That which We Desire of Love, We Must Give in Love.

For Our Ancestors, Our Elders, Our Families and Every Child We Know and Those Yet to Be Born...

May We All Work Together and Learn to Do Business Together So that We Create Strong Educational, Economic Foundations and Become Good Responsible Stewards of Love and Prosperity To Share!

Ubuntu!  I AM Because You Are! 

Umoja!  Unity! 

Kujichagulia!  Self-Determination! 

Ujima! Collective Work and Responsibility! 

Ujamaa! Cooperative Economics! 

Always, Melony
