Peace Out

Peace is on my mind tonight. I'm feeling a rush of energy in the direction of peace. It's powerful and makes me vibrate all over. I feel it coming through on the winds of change.


When I was in college in 1968, I first heard "Last Night I had the Strangest Dream," the ultimate peace song, and I loved it so much that I made it the lullabye I sang to my children every night. So I've included a video of it for you, several artist's versions actually, Joan Baez, Simon and Garfunkel, John Denver. And for the love of diversity, I've included "Everyday People" by Sly and the Family Stone. Enjoy and peace out.

Joan Baez has such a haunting, inspiring voice. Brilliant.

The video was removed. Sorry.

Happiness With Friends

To sit with friends and laugh or cry, hug and share our joy increases it exponentially. You are not alone, gather together and be happy. The videos today are usually thought of as romantic songs, but when you make them about your friends, they take on a new depth of meaning.  "Some kind of Wonderful," and You Put Your Arms Around Me and I'm home."  Enjoy, I know I did.
Sit Yourself Down With a Friend; Sit Yourself Down With a Stranger/May Message from Grandmothers Speak

"Instead of 'working, working, working' at life," they continued, "whenever possible, gather with a group of like-minded souls and sit and listen to one another. Share time and share your light. Hold parties, gatherings, and circles," they said, giggling as my jaw dropped further. "Sit around a table and share food. Talk, and pray together. Embrace one another and appreciate and celebrate your differences. Enjoy each other!" they cried. "Love one another. Let go of 'working' so hard and instead, revel in your togetherness. You are Here!" the Grandmothers cried. "You are here at this momentous time in history and you are here together! How wonderful it is to share such a moment.

"You are companions on the way, so celebrate as you continue on the path. All of you are quite wonderful. We love and cherish each of you. Please love and cherish one another too," they said, "for when you do, our love spreads and multiplies. It can then cover the earth and infuse every form of life on your planet. It's time to let go of the "hardness" and "efforting" of Yang," they said, patting me to reassure me. "Let go of striving, of worry, fear, and judgment. What joy did any of these ever bring you anyway?" they asked, throwing their hands in the air. "Instead," they said, "sit yourself down with a friend; sit yourself down with a stranger. Appreciate him or her and while you're doing that, be aware of how very much we appreciate you. We do!" they cried.
