Hope For All/Oness Love Foundation Video
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."

New Hope/Emmanuel Jal/ War Child
This Prayer is Dedicated to Ger Duany and Emmanuel Jal
and Every War Child Everywhere....There is HOPE!
Dearest MotherFatherGOD,
Yesterday, today and tomorrow see me, hear me, feel me
as I offer my thanks and my love to YOU.
Even as I struggle to understand this world, somehow sleep overcomes me
and in my sleep I feel that I rejoice with the matrix of love that is YOU.
Thank you.
Thank you for each hurt, each challenge, each lesson that brings me more awareness.
Thank you for this unknowingness that gives me new humility.
Thank you for the imbalance and roller coaster of life
that holds me with love through my despair.
Today my heart opens and opens throughout the Universe.
Though I have no words, I feel nurtured by the infinite possibility of your love.
I think of Ger Duany, Emmanuel Jal
---and all of the Lost Boys of the Sudan , and the lost boys of the world.
I think too of the Girls raped and lost on every continent.
All of them living in a hell… made by our collective materialist greed.
Surely we are ready to come together in Oneness.
As planes drop in flames from the sky and our addictions
lead to mass destruction is it not time to open our hearts and speak the unspeakable?
This world we are living in must change now.
Nations thriving on shock and awe result in guns and bombs
as the source of understanding for children through video games.
Poisoned food, poisoned minds, poisoned hearts
exist only to destroy our connection to love which is our Infinite Source.
I see these things; these horrors that others only speak of,
but still I awaken with hope and strength and courage.
I pray through this time of Sodom and Gomorrah
to see us return to Heaven On Earth where we thrive together in harmony
and God Grants Us Grace.
This is the dream I am dreaming.
This dream where our love for each other holds the answer to our future---
this dream where my heart joins Emmanuel’s smile and Ger’s laugh
to build new schools; to educate and restore customs and culture
and communities which are holy and speak of love. Only LOVE.
What will it take to stop the drones from flying with missiles to destroy lives?
One life taken anywhere is me killing myself. Why should I kill over and over?
Today’s pain is unbearable but still I lift up with courage and ask for hope.
In doing so, I am able to release the hurt and the pain that is magnified
throughout our Mother Earth=Heart and to see beyond to the next World of Love.
We are here and Awakening. We are here learning to cherish each other;
to heal the wounds; to teach respect, and courage, forgiveness and Love.
Our Soul’s sole purpose is to open our hearts
and to shine as brilliant Morning Stars of our Blessed Divine Mother’s Grace.
Today God, my Blessed Mother and Father,
I rest and move with your guidance so that I bring order and beauty
to my home and the Universe. Home is Heaven On Mother Earth.
I pray for all others and send loving thoughts of joy and healing.
I pray for new humility, compassion, understanding and the Joy
to open my heart to the lessons of God at this, and every moment in time.
I listen with my heart. I allow my tears---some of joy, some of pain
but all for cleansing and healing to connect with the Eternal River of Life.
I re-member and ask Our Blessed Divine Mother to hold me once again
and to allow me to be nurtured by her wisdom and imbued with LOVE.
Blessed Divine Creator and Infinite ONE,
today and everyday, hear my prayer and let it be a Song of the Universe.
Allow me to meet no stranger and to see God in ALL.
Teach me to condemn none,
as my heart learns to transform every thought into Love.
Right now, I see Mothers and Fathers with Daughters and Sons
and Brothers and Sisters and Cousins and Aunts and Uncles
and GrandMothers, GrandFathers and All our Ancestors
--- as Blessed Children of God.
My sight, once lost has returned to me and as I awaken,
I re-member my true purpose.
I will love and die loving to be re-born loving,
and to love again over and over to love until
---until we ALL understand, accept and rejoice that there is nothing real
but Forgiveness and LOVE.
And So It Is With Love….

The Obama Lesson.....A Family Prayer
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7aWbykLpbgU
Please join us as we thank Spirit for each and every blessing & miracle
that has manifested in our lives,
and the lives of all others throughout the Universe.
It is time to end ALL violence,
for forgiveness,
and a massive healing
so that we begin to accept
that separation of any kind
moves us away from our Collective Self.
WE ARE ONE
in mind, body & spirit.
We each have a responsibility
to open our hearts,
and to learn to love unconditionally.
If asked how does one fight assimilation???
then we must consider this response---
we don't….
because the idea is to grow in LOVE.
We merge with Divine Consciousness.
This is our Spiritual Journey.
This is the reason why
we are here on Mother Earth=Heart.
For some of us, then the question becomes,
"How do I maintain my identity?",
The only true identity that we have
is to be ONE In Spirit
That is not to say
that we should ignore
our individual birth cultures.
On the contrary….
part of our journey to Spirit
is to have an understanding
of the many paths that we,
and our hopeful ancestors have taken.
With hope we can continue to learn to see more clearly,
and to work to live with understanding,
compassion, and a strong sense of self,
which is OUR her and his story.
Please join us in affirmation....
Today I pray for strength,
courage, and hope.
I release my fear.
I speak the truth.
I honor my hopeful ancestors.
I nurture my children and my entire family.
I believe in economic empowerment.
I walk as a leader,
a diplomat & a visionary.
I look at my brothers & sisters,
some lost,
and open my arms to show the way.
Together we stand
in the reflection pool
of our ancestors,
and join them in hope
and celebration of the
ongoing journey to re-membering LOVE…

New YouTube Video Colloaboration By Yubupa
Greeting and Blessings to All throughout the Planet, and the Uni-Verse...
I have just received the gift of a new YOUTube Video of the Prayer In Celebration of President-Elect Barack Obama.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cc5g8fxv3KA
This video which was created by Yubupa serves as another reminder of what happens when we come together in love, and allow space for others to share with us and expand our vision. I believe this is why we elected Senator Barack Obama.
As an artist, the collaborative is very important to me and I marvel at my Soul Sisters Yubupa ( for her Videos) and Michelle Murray (and her students) at Miami-Dade Community College in Florida for their choreography of my poetry in dance and video.
I would be honored if you would share Yubupa's
Prayer In Celebration of President-Elect Barack Obama video far and wide. Thank you!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cc5g8fxv3KA
with Love & JOY!

In Celebration of President-Elect Barack Obama
Prayer In Celebration of President-Elect Barack Obama,
44th President of the United States, his wife Michelle,
his daughters Malia and Sasha
and All the People of the Earth=Heart.
Blessed Divine Spirit,
Right now we are filled with joy, and respect for eachother.
Let our lives have new meaning.
Show us how to best do your work, to have patience,
and undying love for All..
Allow us new gratitude and fortitude
filled with courage and laced with strength
as we shepherd in this magnificent new era.
We have voted with our hearts open without fear.
Let us be exuberant in our hope,
ecstatic in our faith
and peaceful in our joy.
There is work to be done.
Our lives are wrought with challenges
but the world community joins us in this new time---
in our desires to heal and nurture our Human Collective.
We are awakening in love
One by one.
We are re-membering
our children and our seniors as special gifts.
The lens for our collective future is clear.
The message is Change.
We are being asked to return to love.
Love is another name for the energy of God.
It moves through each of us
with each breath we take.
Within this love are the seeds
of Grace and Understanding
that allows us to nurture our world gardens of peace.
It is a peace that comes first within our hearts
and is reflected to others.
It is a peace that allows us to take only our share,
to not be wasteful…
to be generous in Spirit, action and deed.
This is how our Garden will flourish
and join with the forest, the ocean shores,
the city plains and hills, the country villages,
the mountains and valleys.
This is how we can move beyond war
and create a world with equanimity
where there is food, housing, healthcare,
economic stability
and new solutions to Earth’s conservation and Global warming,
while honoring our entire sentient family .
Let Us Join Together with President–Elect Barack Obama
and say….
YES WE CAN!
And So It Is With Love!

When We Feel Helpless
Dearest Beloved Community,
The last few weeks have been a wake-up call.
Control of our personal destinys have in some cases
been taken momentarily out of our hands
and it leaves us feeling vulnerable.
Whether we are feeling the aftershock
of current economic waves,
or personally know of someone suffering
from lack or poor health
the result is the same,
it makes us feel helpless.
For some of us, security has been taken away,
and all that re-mains is for us
to be still for a moment--- and just wait and see.
Yes, these are trying times.
It is also a time that calls for us
to re-evalute our lives, and our purpose.
We also have the opportunity
to make gratitude, hope, patience and faith
important actions steps in our lives.
How many of you have awakened feeling
a sense of loss and thought "I AM NOTHING"?
I know that I have.
Once again a talented artist named Pat
has joined me by offering music and pictures
to internal ideas.
The result is a new youtube video that you may view and share with others.
I AM NOTHING
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7kucmCQ-lo
No matter how hard, or what circumstance you may be in at this time, I hope that each of you have time to take a few moments and reflect on the wonder and beauty of your lives.
In doing so, you find the strength and courage to go on!
Let us begin to offer eachother
our unconditional support, love & respect....
