His Holinessthe Dalai Lama in NYC
"Non-Violence is an act of compassion. Religious understanding, harmony and mutual respect is needed for humanity. Have deep uunderstanding and repect for all Traditions." ---His Holiness the Dalai Lama said yesterday at Radio City Music Hall.
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."

Dignity of Love
We must all re-commit to the dignity of love....wanting for others what we want for ourselves... sharing our brilliance,our resources and respect for those who are different. Within our hearts lies the potential of miracles. If we have compassion and hope and we can take action to heal the world...Do you believe this is possible?

Sping Meanderings---Fear, Friendship and Forgiveness
dear fear, the truth is that when we love eachother, we are given divine inspiration. you are my friend. believe in me, let my heart rule and just alert gently me to real danger. let us live with truth and forgiveness, faith and understanding.
we are so much more than we imagine. say yes to compassion and watch your life unfold with grace!
joy is the spark of love that is shared and lights the hearts in reflection of love!
we have so much to share, so much hope to give and so much joy to receive.
The first time the Divine spoke to me, I just went back to sleep. Now I hear and feel the Divine everywhere and I have no choice but to love. When you get the Divine Call, what will you do? I believe YOU were already called....please, tell me...since you have heard and felt the voice of LOVE, what are you doing????
today please just show up- try to be fully present and feel the fruit of love manifesting within your heart. therin lies the miracle!
tornadoes, storms, and rain calls for clearing, cleansing' compassion and prayer. today pay attention to an opening of grace!
surely it is a day for us to share our hearts and reflect the greatest miracle ever to manifest...compassionate love! today, embrace the joy of awakening!
embrace mother. earth-heart big enough to heal and love us eternally if we only choose to nurture and respect her says father!
I am trying to meet all beings heart to heart, connecting in love sharing respect. in this the field of miracles I discover the place where we are one. what will your miracle be today?
life is full of infinite possibility. how will you select your next steps? what is your heart telling you???
laugh with a new friend...or cry with an old friend...both are healing and gifts of love...
true friends often read in-between the lines of your life, listening to what is not said. they see/feel you and accept you, and love you. what a blessing!
special moments re-membered are like songs of the heart. today is a day to create a new song. trust your vision, reflect your heart. live new special moments filled with grace.

Spring Note From Miss Mellie Rainbow
Spring Note From Miss Mellie Rainbow
The Destiny of Our Collective Gratitude
Spring is always a time for our re-birth and awakening.
It allows us to express our gratitude
and re-new our visions
of helping to heal our Mother Earth=Heart.
There are so many reasons to be grateful….
But it also is a time for us to examine our hearts
and to pose a few questions.
Why do we squash our gratitude with greed?
Why do we make killing a necessary norm,
instead loving our neighbors as members
of our human and sentient family?
We are so often careless in the way we treat others,
and the way we treat our Mother Earth=Heart.
Our disregard is evident in the smallest things.
The piece of paper that one throws on to the ground
soon amounts to streets strew with garbage.
The unkind words we use when we simply disagree
become landmines and killing fields
that result in deep wounds of the heart.
This then leads to militaristic campaigns
where both soldiers and civilians
including mothers and children are killed recklessly
and without regard to our Collective ONENESS.
Is this the choice we really desire
to make in our hearts?
Our minds often appear to thrive
in the “Us versus THEM” paradigm.
Have we lost our way? What is our Collective Destiny?
It is interesting… for all those
who have awakened with fear
many more are awakening with deep love
for all sentient beings.
And as we awaken, we learn
to breathe deep soulful breaths----
and come to understand that
within the breath is the hope of Universal Spirit.
Each day more humans awaken with a tingling,
a new sense of humility and a desire
for new compassionate understanding.
One might say that we are like the buds
of cherry blossoms, magnolias,
or orchids in the Springtime.
How do YOU choose to blossom this Spring?
Will you allow your ego to fill you with new visions of fear
or will you embrace the nurturing breath of Divine Spirit.
Chose Well Beloved, for your choice
helps determine our Collective Destiny of Gratitude.
Written With Love and Respect,
