SENDING A CLEAR MESSAGE

I like going to a place where God hears me. There are so many external forces going on in the world right now, many divisive and cruel, that I feel compelled to seek a place where the quiet of my mind makes room for good sensationalism.

I have set out this week to find a place where I can stimulate and stir the dream within me. The pulse of our nation is waking, and in many places, it is waking up shouting as if emerging from a nightmare, which in most cases is true. The republic for which we stand is rifled right now with unrest. These feelings have been far too prevalent for far too long. We can no longer look aside. That is why I am prescribing to look inside instead.

My solution is to set aside ten minutes each day to dream and ask for the clarity needed to act. I shall find a quiet corner; I shall not be dissuaded. In my ten-minute stillness, I will let my mind wander – I will dream about the change that needs to come. I will listen intently to the harmony of silence and the solution the heavenly spirits offer me. I will dream big, too. I will ask for World Peace, not with the naiveté of a pageant girl, but with the conviction of the powerful woman I am. Lofty goals have always been my strong suit.

Join me in spending ten minutes a day dreaming. The efforts we expend will go far in our paving the ‘road to clear consciousness’ for our Nation.

“We can only be said to be alive in those moments when our hearts are conscious of our treasures.”

~ Thornton Wilder
