Gift of the Lamban Honoring Miss Katherine Dunham
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."

a dream that heals...
A Dream That Heals
My Beloveds,
Please join me in a collective prayer for peace.
Let us open our hearts with love, and flexibility.
Let us walk with patience, and understanding.
Allow us each to create peace within our hearts,
and to exude that peace externally.
Let us walk as a calming hot stream
and exude love’s warming vapors.
Loving spirits of the universe,
help us learn to be of service to eachother.
Let our eyes, and hearts open with joy
to receive the miracles that manifest each day.
As the birds call us to dance, and laugh, and sing;
allow a new peace to move through each of us
so that we begin to heal our Earth=Heart.
Let us each acknowledge our gratitude
to our Blessed Divine Mother and Father.
Right now at this moment,
let us feel new gratitude
as our entire sentient family reflects Joy.
Let us each re-member that a part of you,
and part of me are forever interconnected
to a Universal Spirit.
Right now, let us see
and connect to the Divine in ALL.
Let our hearts tenderly wander
around the universe exuding love,
and healing those with broken spirits.
Together, let us manifest the beginning of something
new, gentle, humane and beautiful.
As we re-member that we are interconnected
heart to heart,
we reflect only love, we release all fear,
we exude joy as a collective.
We become a rainbow of peace, service,
equanimity and love.
This Is Our Dream. This Is Our Prayer.
And So It With Love.

I AM ONE 9/9/09
Today Joy moves through me as I learn compassion and humility.
I am ONE with all sentient beings…the sky, the clouds, the sun the rain, the trees that sway and dance in the wind, the birds that greet me in song.
I am One with the Spirit of Mother Theresa, Malcolm, Martin, John, and Edward as well as Ruth, Isaac, Joshua, Mary, Jesus, Khadeeja, Mohammed, Shams, Kuan Yin and Sojourner Truth.
I am ONE with the woman suffering from breast cancer and the man suffering and dying from lung cancer and the woman in Afghanistan whose family was killed by a drone.
I am ONE with the homeless woman pushing the cart with all her worldly possessions and warning us of our greed though we don’t often listen.
I am One with the Tibetan who was told by Chairman Mao that religion is poison and the Palestinian wandering, unable to return to his homeland.
I am One with the starving child of Dafur
and the Israeli settler with a gun in his hand.
I am One with every child born at this moment
and the great-grandparents who are taking
their last breath on this Earth Realm.
I am ONE with the artist struggling to show us the way
and the politician disgraced in shame.
I am ONE with those who have awakened in love and those filled with fear.
Circumstances make no difference to me
for I embrace the journey and see the Divine
in those who may not see the Divine in themselves.
I am One with the President who needs more courage
to say stop the killing everywhere
and the Dalai Lama whom asks us to live in peace.
In my dreams the white Buffalo Woman,
the morning dove and the golden hawk
guide me as my heart becomes filled
with ancient prayers of all traditions.

I am One with the caterpillar and the butterfly.
I am One with the Buddhist, the Christian, the Jew,
the Moslem, the Bahai, the Hindu, the Yoruba, the Janist,
the Naturalist, the One who doesn’t believe in God
and the One Lost in their material identity
and always needing more….
Today Joy moves through me as compassion, humility
and understanding become a way of life...
for in you I see the reflection of me
and know WE ARE ONE.
