consider the possibility

Mel's Blog For Writing + News + Loving Thoughts + Love Actions

Surprise yourself. When the best of us is brought forth, it gives us the chance to let go of the worst of us. When you accelerate through the tape, when you keep on going well past the appointed task, when you raise the level of your efforts to the maximum of your potential, when you give your all, leaving nothing off the table, when you step into the moment acting on intuiting doing what needs to be done. You have the beginnings of that feeling of having done your best. You gave it all and there is no question, no doubts. Doing our best is a practice of connecting to our inner power. It allows for our deepest most expressive loving. Move into deep respect and appreciation for who you are, how you operate. No holding back. Grow in understanding of what your needs are. We owe it to those who come after us to remain awake, to celebrate who we are, and to talk about things that matter and to always do our best, no more, no less.

AWAKEN: GET IT DONE WITH LOVE

If you want to be an icon. If you want to embrace your inner light. If you want to do your best. Consider being the kind of broad in the entertainment business Bette Midler has demonstrated. Be in the full possession of your gifts. A quadruple threat, giving human, untouched career, enduring characters, a voice to break your heart, hit you with a Mack truck, back up crushing your spirit, and then lift, repair, rejuvenate and uplift in the world of one song. A true legend. A broad. If you have to be anything. Be a broad. Be a broad like Bette Midler. “It's the heart, afraid of breaking, that never learns to dance. It is the dream, afraid of waking, that never takes the chance. It is the one, who won't be taken, who cannot seem to give. And the soul afraid of dying that never learns to live.” ― Bette Midler, The Rose:

REMEMBER: DO BE, DO BE, DO

No matter what divides us, we must remain united in the highest order of freedom with respect for our differences and find our common connections. Let’s make practicing love a way of life. Not because it's easy. But because it's the right thing to do. Everything started in love knows how to return to that space. When we know unity, peace, it is easier and easier to do your best and when you arrive at the 4th agreement of The Four Agreements, 1. Be Impeccable With Your Word. 2. Don't Take Anything Personally. 3. Don't Make Assumptions. 4. Always Do Your Best. No more, no less. Be about the best of who you are and how you show up in the world. Do your best. Do your best. Do your best.

The key is in my hand, to open the door beyond which lies the end of all dreams. Let me not wait again today. Let me forgive all things, and let creation be as it is. Put the key in the lock and step through the door, into the blazing light of truth, as memory of love returns. ACIM

“Find your Light; They can't love you if they can't see you” ― Bette Midler


As powerful as the day it was released into the world. Bette Midler singing The Rose is a tour de force of grace. Some say an actor needs a vehicle to become a star, The Rose was a perfect match for Bette Midler to find her light. Mark Rydell understood the range of power and gifts Ms. Midler had to give. Bette Midler was already a star who knew how to take a script into the stratospheres of her loving heart. Enjoy.

THOUGHT SHIFTER/MEDICINE

The key to the door beyond which lies the end of dreams, into wholeness and peace is given today. Stand before this threshold gate as if it was the heart of heaven and wonder no more, enter this place we call home. Let me not wait again, or stop myself, or wait for others, today. Let me forgive all things, and let creation be as it is. Let me remember I am noe with all that is.

How do we begin to love. What is the magic we keep alive in our communities. The greatest joy we receive is in knowing who we are and sharing our gifts.

MEDIA FOR LOVING, LEARNING AND GROWTH:

A wonderful reminder from our voices in harmony channel --- Fear is Not My Future (Music Video) · Maverick City Music, Kirk Franklin an uplifter and a way through.


From YOUTUBE: Fear is Not My Future was written by Brandon Lake, Jonathan Jay, Hannah Shackleford & Nicole Hannel. It is from Maverick City Music’s collaboration album with Kirk Franklin entitled “Kingdom Book One” Available Now! On June 17, 2015, nine African-American men and women lost their lives in a single act of hatred during a weekly Bible study at Mother Emanuel AMEC in Charleston, SC. Seven years after the tragedy, Fear Is Not My Future was recorded in April 2022 to commemorate and honor the lives lost during the Charleston shooting. This song is a declaration of hope in the midst of our trials and tribulations. The heart behind this project is to not only expand the idea of what the Kingdom of God looks like, but to also share and spread music and a message that taps into an inspirational and unfiltered love for all people. You can stream Fear is Not My Future on “Kingdom Book One” Available on all major platforms.
