Embracing Change with Love

Embracing Change with Love
Saturday, 21 March, 2009 12:19 AM
From: "Harold W. Becker"
To: "'John Goltz'"

Dear Friends,

We are such amazing beings of infinite capacity and potential. Our boundless imagination, coupled with our wondrous will, allows us to bring our ideas into outer reality. Through our thoughts and feelings, we can literally create and experience that which we dream of in our heart of hearts. With patience and trust we manifest whatever we truly seek to experience on this grand adventure.

Whether we realize it or not, we create this way every moment. Yet, so often we become mired in habit and routine and stop being present with our imagination and the wisdom of our heart. Instead, we allow outmoded and outdated beliefs to take over rather than being aware of our creative choice. The unquestioned stream of mental thoughts, subtle notions of our emotional disposition, and very often, the outer suggestions of others, begin to dictate our identity, our actions and reactions.

That is, until something comes along to awaken us. This is frequently in the form of an accident, illness, unexpected event or circumstances that instantly disrupts our routine. If we are deeply rooted in habit, mentally or emotionally focused in the past or future, or simply unaware of our own creative spirit, this experience is usually met with great resistance and defiance by our outer personality or ego. The defenses, justification, victimhood and righteousness are often our immediate reaction to the fear and doubt that comes instantly to the surface. We become afraid of the change that has already happened.

How would our lives be different if we chose to be present in each moment knowing that change is constant and the very nature of life itself? What would happen if we actually embraced change as a wonderful opportunity to restore our creative capacity and begin anew with love?

Life is fluid, expansive and recreating itself every moment; we need only pay attention to the natural world to realize this. From the cycle of the seasons to the ever flowing rivers, the ceaseless life giving energy of the sun, the acorn becoming the mighty oak, or the rhythmic pulse of our own heartbeat, nature understands and embraces change. No two moments are exactly the same and love is forever present.

Always remember who you are – a beautiful and outrageously creative being capable of manifesting a world filled with peace, joy and unconditional love. Now is the perfect moment to imagine a new potential and choose it for yourself and the world around you.

Love, light and peace,

Harold W. Becker

A Spring Note From Miss Mellie Rainbow

GLOBAL LOVE DAY (2008)

My Beloveds,
Angels sang to me this morning and awakened me from a lovely slumber.
Today I pray for each beautiful sentient being throughout the Universe.
I visualize us enveloped in a world of peace, with equanimity, and joy.

Still, my heart cries at our need for violence, at our rationale for killing, at our thoughts of the inevitability of war, and economic collapse. Painfully I address the lack of opportunity, literacy and safety for those in the United States, and extend my thoughts globally.
There is no reason or need for poverty of mind, body or spirit
---other than the desire for a few to have MORE.

More money, more land, more stocks, more fun in the Alps ---MORE.

Though I am grateful for each of my blessings,
Today I too am asking for MORE.

My more is in direct relation to a desire for equity for all people,
the sustainability of our Earth, and the healing of all disease.

My more is hope, joy, compassion, and understanding.
My more is a world filled with conscious intention and love.
My more is a request to ask that we honor our seniors, share them with our precious children and provide them with the best of ourselves.

MORE. My more is a dream of humility, respect and diplomacy as we learn to interact with each other heart to heart.

MORE. My more is for us to vision and create a world of cooperation where we allow others the dignity of returning to their homelands instead of creating political obstacles to peace.

Yes today my heart sings a melody of more---more understanding, more compassion, more willingness to share the fruits of our labor.
I believe our potential of greatness. I believe in a society that says right NOW---let’s redefine our commitment to each other.

Please, let us remember the voice of the Great Spirit.
Let us ask more of ourselves as we meet each other in Grace,
and walk side by side, heart to heart.

Let us have more listening, more kindness, more truth, more hope and more faith as we embrace the Divine in each of us.
This Is My Request of MORE!

CHANGE HAS COME TO AMERICA

'Change has come to America'
Wednesday, November 5 07:28 am

• Barack Obama has become the first black US president
after a landslide election victory.
Obama wins historic US election
RELATED CONTENT
• Obama considers top job for Clinton
• Fierce speculation Obama will choose Clinton as top diplomat

Related Hot Topic: John McCain
The 47-year-old Democrat led his Republican rival John McCain by 297 votes to 139 as he passed the magic number of 270 needed to win the presidency at 4am GMT. Later projections showed he won by 349 votes to 158.

Mr Obama promised change and a new dawn of leadership.
Speaking after sweeping a series of key battleground states in a landslide electoral college victory, he pledged to be a president of all Americans and vowed to overcome challenges which were "the greatest of our lifetime", including two wars, a global economic crisis and a planet in peril.
"I promise you, we as a people will get there," he said.
Cheered on by tens of thousands of supporters in Chicago's Grant Park, Mr Obama took to a stage lined with US flags with his his wife Michelle and young daughters Malia, ten, and Sasha, seven, at his side.
Mr Obama told those whose support he had not won: "I hear your voices, I need your help and I will be your president too."
He said he would listen to his opponents, adopt a multilateral approach to world affairs and told those watching outside the US that "our stories are singular but our destiny is shared".
"The new dawn of America leadership is at hand," he said.
"To those who would tear the world down, we will defeat you. To those who seek peace and security, we support you.
"And to all those who have wondered if American's beacon still burns as bright, tonight we've proved once more that the true strength of our nation comes not from the might of our arms or the scale of our wealth, but from the enduring power of our ideals: democracy, liberty, opportunity and unyielding hope.
"That's the true genius of America. The road ahead will be long, our climb will be steep. We may not get there in one year, or even in one term, but America I have never been more hopeful than I am tonight that we will get there.
"I promise you, we, as a people, will get there."
Many in the crowd were crying and even political pundits on major US TV networks wiped tears from their eyes as the man who could transform race relations in America ascended to the highest office in the land.
Conceding defeat in his home state of Arizona, Mr McCain said: "The American people have spoken and they have spoken clearly. This is an historic election."
Mr McCain joined outgoing president George W Bush in calling Mr Obama to congratulate him personally.
Mr Obama, a first-term senator from Illinois, will be sworn in as the 44th US president on January 20, 2009.
The win by Mr Obama, the son of a black father from Kenya and white mother from Kansas, comes 45 years after the high point of the equality movement led by Martin Luther King Jr.
The assassinated civil rights leader's daughter Bernice King said: "I was very excited tonight and moved to tears."

OBAMA—THE SEARCH FOR AN IDEALISTIC HUMANE GOVERNMENT CONTINUES

It has been many years since the famous “I Have a Dream” Lincoln Memorial speech of 28th August, 1963 by Martin Luther King where he wished to see a United States of America where her people would be judged not by the colour of their skin but by the contents and strength of their character. Surprisingly or not so surprisingly whenever you heard anything about “I have a Dream” speech in the media it never went beyond the colour of their skin and the one about the strength and contents of your character was disdainfully dismissed.

Now what exactly is this thing called: the colour of your skin; the more appropriate word is skin tone - and scientifically speaking the melanin content of your skin or pigment. Each and every human being on this over populated planet of ours (i.e. almost 5 billions or 6 billions- too much already in any case!) have their own skin tone and most importantly it is not a fixed thing; i.e. prolonged exposure to the sun or complete lack of it will cause the skin to take various hues and shades of colour. The quote un quote “white” world spends billions of dollars on sunny beach vacation destinations to work on their tans and even super rich businessman or politicians who are always dropping the words “men and women of colour” in their conversations are often seen holidaying/relaxing on their yachts with a pot belly and a reddish brown suntan. It seems like they need the “men and women of colour” from all over the world to work hard so he can have a break and have suntan like his employees. Let’s also not forget thousands of suntan places doing brisk business all over America and the western world. The point I am trying to make here is the absurdity and the hypocrisy of this whole system based on the tonality of your skin.
The novelist Mr Joseph Conrad in his novel “The Heart of Darkness” observes caustically that Imperialism as nothing but plundering and enslaving of people and culture that possess darker skin a different hair pattern and slightly flatter noses. That they have those particular physical characteristics because of the proximity of the Sun to those equatorial countries is conveniently ignored. What an uninteresting drab world it will be if we all looked just the same. Thank God for our diversity and differences. It seems the ruling class or the ruling elite chose an arbitrary system to divide people to justify their exploitations - and hence the birth of racism and slavery. And then later on religion was added to justify and compound the problem. This vicious cycle of exploitation needs to be broken once and for all for human beings to evolve and move forward in consciousness.
If we look around in this world and here I thank profusely the Discovery channel Animal planet... Plant planet …so on and so forth we are overwhelmed and awed by the beauty and mind boggling range of diversity that stares us right into our face both in the floral and faun an world. And it is only when we come to the Human world this whole concept of diversity takes a back seat in the bus. Why? The answer is simple economics. Everything in this world can be boiled down to hard core economics which in plain English translates for the benefits and advantages of wealth certain people will go to extreme lengths to justify their heinous acts.

In the present times we are not in direct slavery anymore but we are still modern slaves, whether we are slave to technology, heavily dependent upon the economics, slaved and intoxicated by power and wealth… which always goes hand in hand….slave to wrong images as manufactured by the media and the advertising industry which has reduced masses of people to nothing but consumers of enormous amounts of not needed (unwanted) products. We are increasingly living in a very Americanised McDonaldised, televisionised world where more and more malls are being constructed and plastic soap operas and coca colas are thrust upon people who were very recently farmers and fishermen. They simply do not understand what is going on? A simple peaceful life of hard labour and living close to nature (where their main source of joy comes from!) has been replaced by concrete steel glass and plastic civilisation---If we can call that civilisation at all? The people living within that civilisation are themselves uneasy and unhappy and now we go world wide to dump that on simple indigenous people who frankly does not need our civilisation. On the contrary they may have many valuable lessons to teach us on how not to rape and plunder nature ceaselessly and make her barren and bald way before her time.
Now my readers you may ask what does it have to do with Obama as the New president elect of America in 2008 elections…patience my friends and fellow readers. It is America that holds the key to the survival of this planet and mankind. (We say Man-Kind but surprisingly so few in the present days of Ugly competition are actually kind or generous!). It is this very American spirit of can do attitude and nothing is impossible made the global imperialism of USA happen. Is it not possible (and I know I am going out on a limb here) that same spirit once properly inspired can bring about a different sort of change. The Change in people’s heart and attitude, his mind body and spirit. A feeling of Oneness, that we are in this altogether as one mankind one race the Human race. This endless exploitation of world resources to feed the frenzied whimsy of the super-rich and their lifestyle must stop. The world simply does not have enough resources for one billion Chinese and Indian people to catch up with their first world dreams and the life style that goes with it. What we need is to re-evaluate how we have been conducting ourselves and our businesses all over the world. Business as usual also equals to exploitation, poverty and misery as usual. A more balanced sustainable and ethical ways of conducting business is absolutely Imperative and urgent.

Change we must (otherwise it will be forced upon us anyway!) in our attitude our thinking and our lifestyle—mostly in the Westernised democracies of the world to pave the way for a peaceful, tolerable Just and green world. What America does today the rest of the world follows. It is only in America people are not burdened down heavily with an obsolete past breathing heavily over their shoulders, and thus making quick dynamic movements almost impossible. This is what happens with other countries, they are burdened by their own past from India to China to Europe it is a heavy price to pay in the name of tradition and culture, - while America is light and quick footed always flexible, re-inventing and re-discovering herself since her birth of democracy (approximately 250 years ago) to the present times, as election of Mr Barrack Obama as the new President clearly proves. America is moving forward from a colour bound to a colour blind society. It is not that America is incapable of mistakes but it also knows how to rectify and learn from her previous mistakes. In an increasingly bifurcated world of haves and have- nots whether in America, UK India, Africa or Europe we need to set aside our superficial differences whatever they may be(nationality, skin tone, looks etc) and work together for the overall benefits of the Human race. I am specially calling out to good kind decent and well meaning individuals of all nations to work together for a Greater Good and to be honest our very survival and existence on this planet is at stake. (Hell folks we don’t have much time left!)

This beautiful blue white and green Planet Earth of ours which we call home which looks so wondrously beautiful from space yet fragile is screaming for Change---and it is up to us ----to All of US to make that change and transition from steps leading to a mass graveyard to the steps leading to a beautiful garden. I think to me the choice is obvious. What the world needs Right Now is Kindness and Compassion more Contemplativeness, Meditation, a silent Prayer to heal this broken world of ours. This does not necessarily mean that we sit in meditative poses folding our legs (though half an hour a day is not too much to ask surely?) but we have to integrate our kindness and compassion into the everyday world of workplace and practice it with all sincerity and earnestness. We are the keepers of our fellow brothers and sisters and then and only then can we become True care-takers of this world, this Planet Earth.

As I have mentioned in the title of this article “Obama—The Search for An Idealistic Humane Government Continues”…..but that cannot happen unless we ourselves become Human and Humane individuals.

PEACE ON EARTH….PEACE ON EARTH….MAY PEACE BREATHE IN OUR TROUBLED HEARTS AND SOULS.

P.S: A note to my readers, you may or may not have noticed I use the word human quite often in this article and I will continue to do so…it is a bit like drilling advertising slogans by TV people and I will continue to say Human----till one fine morning you wake up and you realise that you are nothing but a Human Being after all and all your false identities have been stripped away from you. I look forward to that particular Dawn.

(Aside: I do not mind if that defining moment happens in evening or noon-times, as long as it happens!)

"THE BIRTH OF HOPE" (by Mandel Rheems)

The coming forth & awakening of a new hopeful & peaceful age that is upon us, some call the Aquarian Age, will become also a greater movement & awakening to the prophesies & visions foretelling of the coming deeper changes in preparation for the Golden Age ahead.
We, of the high council of the ancient Elders, of this planetary sphere called: Mother Earth, or “VAGRA”, are bound by the holiest & deepest commitment to the righteous forces of Cosmic & karmic laws, of the lowest & highest prophetic intent. We are foretelling of the coming forth of a renewed hope regarding the coming planetary disruptions in the immediate renewal & cleansing of karmic negative residue of vibrations & energies – of pollution of the physical emotional & mental thought forms, - & the perverted residue of absolute degradation, that has entered the Earth’s sphere, throughout the thousands of decades & the eons of time – since all began! For life on the planetary spheres connected to the Earth’s evolution & plan.
ALL IS IN GOOD HANDS! - WE HAVE THE PROFOUND AUTHORITY TO ISSUE FORTH THE PROFOUNDEST DECLARATION THAT: ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! The exploitation & perversion of these spheres & the abuse of the innocent & vulnerable ones, the corrupt workings of the scientific thought, & the selfish exploitation of the scientific mind of genetic engineering, also including the continued evolving & degrading activities of vivisection & factory farming, will be stopped!
AS A BODY OF THE GUARDIANS OF THE UNIVERSAL SPHERES, WITH THE HELP OF THE GALACTIC FEDERATION, INCLUDING THE GREAT WHITE BROTHERHOOD / SISTERHOOD & THE LORDS OF THE DARKER SPHERES & THE DARKER REALMS, “VAGRA”, WILL BE HEARD!
NOW WE WILL BE HEARD! - KNOW FOR SURE, THE GOVERNMENTS & LEADERS OF THE WORLD, - PRAY, TAKE NOTE, - WE HAVE THE ULTIMATE POWERS & WISDOM, WHICH, IF WE ARE NOT LISTENED TO, WILL BE THE MEANS TO CREATE TOTAL PLANETARY & UNIVERSAL PEACE; - OR ANARCHY, CHAOS, OR EVENTUAL OBLIVION FOR ALL CREATION!
WE HAVE SPOKEN! - THE UNIVERSAL COUNCIL OF THE ELDERS!
THE KEY TO FREEDOM CAN BE FOUND IN THE SIMPLE MESSAGE, THE SIMPLE WISDOM: “DO UNTO OTHERS AS YOU WOULD HAVE DONE UNTO YOURSELF!” - MARK WELL THESE WORDS, HUMANITY. - & IF YOU DO NOT MARK WELL, HUMANITY, HUMANITY WILL GO FROM EXISTENCE – FOR EVER!

THIS MESSAGE WAS SUBSCRIBED ON 30/10/2008 THROUGH A CHANNEL OF THE “ONE EARTH VISION AND MISSION”, - MANDEL & REISHA RHEEMS, - FROM THE LORD CHRIST MAITRAYA, & IN THE BEATITUDES OF THE VIRGIN MOTHER MARY, THE LORD BUDDHA & THE BELOVED SACRAMENT OF THE FORTH-COMING ONE: “AKALA”. PEACE – THE BRETHREN.

PRAYER IN CELEBRATION OF BARACK OBAMA AS PRESIDENT ELECT

Sunday, 9 November, 2008 10:22 PM
From: "Mellie Rainbow"
Greetings and Blessings, 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 In Celebration of President Barack Obama video far and wide. Thank you!

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 each other.

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 shore,

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!

These photos were sent to me in email today. These are of a pair of albino deer and were apparently taken near Karlstad, MN. I thought I'd share them with everyone here on Gather.

Albinos are rare, but twins have to be really rare!

Here you can see Dad ( or maybe big brother) keeping watch in the background.

Ihave a feeling these were taken with a motion sensing camera posted near the feeding station. A rare shot of albino twin deer at any rate! A real treat Mother Nature provided us with! C):-)
