IMAGINE A WORLD

Imagine a World where each and every one of was committed to discovering who we are truly here to be, committed to unwrapping our gifts, to living from our deepest being. Imagine a world where we support each other in that quest. Imagine a world where we see in each other our potential to become – Buddha to be, Gandhi to be, Einstein to be. Imagine a world where we greet each other with compassion and an open heart – Dalai Lama to be, Amma to be, Mother Theresa to be. Imagine a world where we thirst for justice and respect – Mandela to be, Ang San Su Kyii to be, Joan of Arc to be. Imagine a world where we stand up for the planet as part of who we are – St. Francis to be, Julia Butterfly to be, Al Gore to be. Imagine a world where we dare to be ecstatically different – Rumi to be, Mary Magdalene to be, Wonder Woman to be. Imagine a world where a black man can become president of the United States of America – Rosa Parks to be, Martin Luther King to be, Barack Obama to be.

Imagine a world beyond imagined boundaries of race, class, colour or creed. Imagine a world where each person reached just a little bit further, towards compassion, sustainability, harmony and creativity. Imagine a world that stretched even further, to the place where ecstasy lives. Imagine a world of celebration for life in all it’s joy and all it’s pain. Imagine a world where nothing stands in the way but fear itself. Imagine a world where fear is just a passing fancy, replaced by unyielding hope, undying trust, indestructible vulnerability. A world where everyone and everything that happens to you is part of an extraordinary opportunity to learn and grow and evolve. Imagine a world that reflected back all the love in your heart, beaming right back at you, blinding you with it’s brilliance. Imagine a world where the extraordinary life you are here to live is here. Your Fierce Light shining bright. Imagine if you could start living that life, right now.

You can. Yes, you can.

Comment by Becki on December 28, 2008 at 9:54pm: yes - all that stands between us and the wonderful world you describe is fear.
As I dance in and through the fear in my life, coming out in loving courage on the other side, I am able to experience this wonderful world - and am so deeply thankful.
May this be (y)our experience on a daily basis. Our world IS transforming.
Even in this time of many reports of great war and evident hatred let us turn to and place our focus on the wonderful light, the flowing and sparkling water, the deep love and bird songs which each of us have experienced and do experience. May that receive all our energy and just blossom ! ! !

I thank you, too, Velcrow Ripper, for putting these words together from your heart.

Comment by Bruce Schuman on December 28, 2008 at 7:40pm: Good morning. I'm just -- going through your posting again, as it sits on the front page (every page!) of iPeace. It's a great statement, thanks so much. It's very evocative. What I'm feeling like doing is -- maybe post a reply or a dialogue with you, over on my blog. I love what you say -- and this "Portal to Unity" concept -- is just one way we might be able to move together towards the world you are imagining. Thanks and blessings, from Santa Barbara, with love....

Comment by David Gould on December 28, 2008 at 4:55pm: How wonderful that in this world of terrible things wrought by mankind's incessant wars and terrorism there is still room for hope, still room for positivity, still room for the notion of peace.

One day the word the Lennon immortalized -Imagine- will become redundant because the peace will have been declared. It is what everyone should want. There are over 13,000 people here for starters and we are not the only ones. The Peace Movement is growing daily stronger. The Peace Movement is about to change the world. And each of us is that change. It is happening.
