I used to wonder what will I do with the suffering? Now I wonder what to do with all of this Joy? Every day I wake up I am led by the gifts of the Holy Spirit which come to me in dreams when I am sleeping and in my morning awakening. What makes me so special you might ask in this world of chaos, violence, and suffering?
We all have a choice and everyday I make a conscious decision to choose Joy. The light does shine on what you pay attention to. It has been said that, "It is better to light a candle than to curse the darkness." This is not just a metaphor. It is a conscious way of living and I choose to light the candle and use my compassionate action everyday to pass the torch of understanding onward.
We, the conscious, have a personal responsibility to shape this world into the kind of world we want it to be.
There is no time like the present. The present moment, living frame by frame, is all we really have. The present moment is shaped by choice after choice. Every action has its consequence.
This is why I find it crucial to spend my days praying, meditating on the bright and beautiful, and daring to dream the good dream... I have held the hand of the waterfall which signifies holding the hands of the suffering...
God tells me that I am not done yet. I will continue to make an indelible mark into someone's life, if not lives...
I choose Joy!
I choose compassionate action.
I live my passion.
Will you join me in this crusade? There is still time to save the planet. One by one...hand in hand. Individually and collectively, we can make the difference.
