DAY 17 of the Season For Nonviolence: "Integrity"

Greetings, family!

Today is Sunday, February 15 and our word for today is, "Integrity."

"Do The Right Thing!" Spike Lee used these words as a title for one of his movies. When faced with a choice, listen to your conscience, and be willing to act accordingly, no matter what others may say. You KNOW what is right to do; you can choose to do it.

Integrity asks for firm adherence to a code of especially moral or artistic values and denies any form of corruption. Integrity is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony. And when I am in harmony, I am a model of nonviolence.

Today's exercise: When faced with a choice today, I listen to my conscience. I will recall then write a short story about a time when I listened to my heart when the people around me were doing something else.

Today's affirmation: "Today, I take time to tell a family member or friend how much they mean to me."

MAY I USE WORDS (Janis Kelly @2007)

May I use words of love and light and healing;
May they reflect the oneness of all life;
May they express the joy and wonder of my heart’s own path;
And may they build a bridge of peace, that reaches ‘round the world.

May I be guided by compassion in my speaking;
May I be generous and brave and true;
May I maintain integrity in all I say and do;
And may I build a bridge of peace, that reaches ‘round the world.

Let my voice be a blessing; to all who are yearning;
For hope and for comfort and for strength!

May I stand for dignity and honor;
May I accept my neighbor as myself;
May I choose to recognize the sacredness of Now;
And may I build a bridge of peace, that reaches ‘round the world.
The world--reaches 'round the world.

Peace, blessings & brilliance,

Janis
