This is a very short post this week, in honor os the 12 precious people who lost their lives in Aurora, Colorado, and the 59 others who were injured, as well as the hundreds who will be traumatized for life.
This poem is for them, and speaks to goodness, and love in this world. There are millions and millions of good, good people in this world, who have been raised in good, good families, full of love, support and generous values and morals.
Sometimes when we see a tragedy like this, we think, “My God, what is this world coming to…has the world gone mad?”
We must take comfort and remember that terrible, and tragic as it was, and not to make less of it in any way by any means, this was one twisted person, who came from undoubtedtly a sad, sad place. We should remember he is a VERY sick man, from a sick and twisted dysfunctional environment. Our prayers are with the victims and their families, as we send tremendous light and love. The healing will take time, and we won’t forget them.
Have faith in the goodness of our world, and as you read the poem above remember the responsibility we have to LIVE what we talk about and learn, to make the world a better place. We carry a heavy responsibility, because we know we can make a difference! We are the world changers! It starts at home, with our children, and what we teach them, the environment they live in, and what they take out into their world.
My mom & dad had this poem hanging on the wall in our home in every house we lived in. We moved a lot when I was growing up, and I remember this was one of the most important plaques on the wall. It must have sunk in.
It all comes down to this: Are you walking your talk? Are you living the personal development you learn every week? Are you showing up in your life? Are you noticeably growing and making an impact?
You should be seeing results and impact that you can track and measure. If not, reevaluate your personal development plan. No matter what, know that you are GREAT just the way you are, and you are loved. Be you, magnificent you, and just give as much of who you are as you can to the world. People will be blown away!
You ARE what you LIVE
Something to think about…
Lots of Love Always..
