Day 18 of the Season For Nonviolence: "Freedom"

Greetings, family!

Today is Monday, February 16 and our word for today is "Freedom."

Civil Rights activist Diane Nash said, "Freedom, by definition, is people realizing that they are their own leaders." Take a leadership role today in your own life. Find a way where you can express who you truly are.

"When people decide they want to be free, there is nothing that can stop them."--Bishop Desmond Tutu

"To be free is to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others."--Nelson Mandela

Today's recommended activity: Today I will claim my definition of freedom by finding one way to be more expressive of who I truly am.

MAY ALL BEINGS KNOW (Janis Kelly @2009)

May all beings know the oneness of peace;
May all beings know the peace of oneness;
May all beings know the oness of peace;
May all beings know the peace of oneness. (REPEAT)
And may peace prevail 'oer all the world.

May peace prevail in Africa;
May peace prevail in Asai;
May peace prevail in South America;
May peace prevail.

May peace prevail in Austrialia;
May peace prevail in Europe;
May peace prevail in North America;
May peace prevail.

May all nations come together in a pledge of Unity;
May we stand in reverence for all life;
May we turn away from prejudice, from hatred, fear and greed;
May we choose instead to let freedom ring!

May all beings know the oneness of peace;
May all beings know the peace of oneness;
May all beings know the oness of peace;
May all beings know the peace of oneness. (REPEAT)
And may peace prevail 'oer all the world.

Peace, blessings & brilliance,
