WATCH FOR CHANGE: Life

Life

I don't want to get to the end of my life
and find that I lived just the length of it.

I want to have lived the width of it as well.

Diane Ackerman

Of Note: Thanks to my Sister, Marie, for once again helping me grace this blog with beauty. The quote was the 3-3-08 Word For the Day from www.gratefulness.org. Marie turned me on to that great website as well. Be sure to check it out.

Today's Weather Report: Absolutely a gorgeous, spring-like day, and somewhere in the upper 30's. With only a few days until spring, I am smiling really big. My indoor little maple tree now has six tiny leaves. The challenge now is to keep it away from the five cats who would find the succulent little leaves tasty indeed.

DARKEST BEFORE THE DAWN

No one would argue that we are in a time of change. Most would also agree that this is a time of drastic, maybe even a time of accelerating change. Some would say "Yeah, but it is certainly not in the right direction." This group might call themselves realists; some might say pessimists.

While others, probably a minority, would say, "Hum, you know, it's always darkest before the dawn. But, the light is already starting to shine through in a place or two." This latter group, too, might call themselves realists; some might say optimists. Others might just call them dreamers, idealists or worse, just plain stupid.

The challenge on this blog is to watch for change that tracks the second premise. Given time, I feel certain that we will see a story unfold in the next decade that may be startling in its simplicity--even though the happenings of the times might look otherwise.

THE GREAT INVOCATION

From the point of Light
within the Mind of God,
Let Light stream forth into the minds of men,
Let Light descend on earth.

From the Point of Love
within the Heart of God,
Let Love stream forth into the hearts of men,
May Christ return to earth.

From the center where
the Will of God is known,
Let purpose guide the little wills of men,
The purpose which the Masters know and serve.

From the center which
we call the race of men,
Let the Plan of Love and Light work out,
And may it seal the door where evil dwells.

Let Light, Love and Power
restore the Plan on earth.

This prayer was given to us in 1945 as a promise that the Age of Peace is coming but the timing is up to Humanity. Millions say it daily. You can join this invocative appeal and, what's more, it's free. Check out http://www.lucistrust.org/ or www.thegreatinvocation.blogspot.com for more information.
