“we’re gonna need to get organized
live beyond boundaries
soften our hearts
talk to each other“we’re gonna need to leave behind our baggage
relinquish our comfort
release our control
co-exist“we’re gonna need to give up our addictions
confront our pain
ask for help
give more than we take“we’re gonna need to dream bigger
work harder
get dirty
take time“we’re gonna need to remember
we’re gonna need to forgive
we’re gonna need to let go
we’re gonna need to let go“we’re gonna need to feel fully
revive our intuition
make up our minds
enact change“we’re gonna need to look at ourselves
reconcile our ignorance
sacrifice shame“make amends
“we’re gonna need to need less
“peel away the nonessential
go hungry
break a sweatwe’re gonna need to heal our fears
tell our secrets
share with our enemies
love ourselves“we’re gonna need to study existence
refine our dreams
mediate our shadows
cure our disbelief“we’re gonna need to practice magic
we’re gonna need to cherish water
we’re gonna need to grieve
we’re gonna need to move on“we’re gonna need to stay focused
we’re gonna need to be strong
tend our commitment to beauty
fuel our devotion to truth“we’re gonna need to pray
we’re gonna need to follow through“endure burning
we’re gonna need to“surrender
we’re gonna need to trust“we’re gonna need to give light
we’re gonna give light
we are light
we are”by Naima of Climbing PoeTree

I am the keeper of the waters
I am the tears behind the veil
I am the mystery and the knowing
I am the wind beneath my own sail
I am the moon full and rising
I am the sorrow and joy
I am the sweet and the bitter
I am the sacrifice and the prize
I am the feminine yearning
For love for honor and truth
I am my past and my destiny
I am the mother of the earth
Do not try to mistake me
Do not try to forsake me
For I am an ancient power
Roaring like rolling thunder
And I am reclaiming my birthright
And I am reclaiming my crown
For none shall hold me or bind me
And none shall keep me down
Gail Swanson

Amen. Let us rise together and go beyond our small limitations. May our prayers be pure and true. May our resistance fall away. May our love always overcome our fears. May we give tremendous thanks to the powers that allow us to be here. We are growing collectively at a very high speed and we are facing the darkness in galactic steps so that we may rise into the divinity of our light. Thank you for sharing. Amen. Amen.

Laughter
trees
mOre than rOads
endless strOlling
feeling air
filling up on
Prana so
we can endure
the bad news
or just ignore for a week
or so
sO we can finish what we started
unless it was in the non-interest of the collective good…
so ask not what your country can do for you…
But what you can do for Your surroundings
Your Universe
Your Heart Your
Vision
Your Yesterday Today Tomorrow
