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

Updated: Jan 26

Rise up. Rise up. Rise up. You know what you need to do. Rise up and do it. We’ve been a society running from our demons, not wanting to face them, because we’ve got no experience with the how. In the past we’ve been able to explore, conquer, quest, discover new worlds, new lands. With the earth being covered and our population stretching resources. There is nowhere to hide. It’s time to stand and say. I will rise up for my brothers and sisters, for my neighbors, for my community.

AWAKEN: RISE UP EACH AND EVERY DAY

We know how to blossom. We know how to love. Rise up in all of it. How could I think that Love has left Itself? There is no will except the Will of Love. Fear is a dream, and has no will that can conflict with Yours. Conflict is sleep, and peace awakening. Death is illusion; life, eternal truth.

Rise Up. We are here to Rise Up.

REMEMBER: LOVE LIFT US UP

Today with everyone’s personal hells being medicated, avoided, deadened and our collective unconscious wounds raging largely unprocessed we are at a turning point.


Don't hide from your fear. Stand and see the truth. Face what you need to face and watch the resilience of your spirit rise to meet the needs of your soul's expression.

Sit in the presence of “God” or the divine free of the conditioned self. Enjoy this interaction. Not the God of a youth spent in separation but the God or divine experience of openness

to the present moment. Listen to the still small voice who knows the entire story. Love will be yours. Love softens the way to hearing with the heart that is connected to all living things. Listen in, the universe is trying to tell you something. Honor yourself by demonstrating how to listen. Be gracious with what you hear. Be kind to yourself and allow compassion to grow through as you hear your way through.

AWAKEN: SEE THINGS FOR WHAY THEY ARE

Like Marcus Aurelius “the first rule is to keep an untroubled spirit. The second is to look things in the face and know them for what they are."' When we allow a quiet, a knowing, a peace, what is in front of us, what is before us, what is for us, is revealed, as we grow in our ability to hear.

REMEMBER: OH THE PLACES WE'LL GO WHEN WE LISTEN

Allow everything to open up in the place of connection where walls and separation crumbles and falls away surrendering to the giving and receiving of love in its purest form. “Free of the constraints of the lie you have been telling yourself forever” and remember the infinity loop of heaven on earth in the fullness of interdependent connection to someone else within the truest space of the sacred relationship with the divine in covenant in the most miraculous part of the universe.

We sing in community to allow the world to open up in all its charms. Together our community choir, The Band of Singers, allows us to cultivate the conditions. One of the songs we use is Listen by Meredith Buck. It embodies the listening of the decolonized body.





Here are the lyrics.


Part 1-

Lay yourself down on the rocks now

Let your body down in the river

Listen for the drumming on the other side

Lose yourself in the meantime


Part 2 -

Listen

Let your body be your guide

Let the water decide

Lose yourself in the meantime


Part 3 -

Listen …

The literal story of the flood is water purifying the earth. When the rains come, when the darkness falls, when something you didn’t want to happen does, maybe consider the possibility there is another way to look at it. Embrace everything that happens. Allow what is within us, around us to flow freely.

AWAKEN: WHY ARE THERE SO MANY SONGS ABOUT RAINBOWS

In Genesis after the flood, "I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth." A rainbow is a love and connection, a sign of hope for tomorrow. Rainbows are formed when sunlight is scattered from raindrops into the eyes of an observer. Most raindrops are spherical rather than the often depicted 'teardrop' shape and it is this spherical shape that provides the conditions for a rainbow to be seen. It is a representation of all the vibrations, colors, tones available throughout the universe, it is what is present but sometimes we don't see. Keep on going. Organize. Align in love and begin again. No. Matter. What.

Plan, prepare and do what you need to do for your. Keep on going. All will be revealed.

REMEMBER: IN THE BEGINNING THERE IS LIGHT

Embracing the gifts as they come flooding in and through is your job in a practice of LOVE. Whatever happens, whatever comes your way, you are relaxing into an understanding that everything has its charm. It’s appeal. Sometimes the floods of love come through to wash up the oppressed energies and emotions and clear the way for a new day. Accept what is presenting and connect to your inner wisdom and the center of your being where love resides.

Everything moves to a rhythm. A rhythm of life. A rhythm of acceptance. A dark inscrutable workmanship that is always at play as Wordsworth wrote those discordant elements beating as one concerto/society.

MEDIA FOR LOVING, LEARNING AND GROWTH:

from YouTube: In collaboration with Indigenous Direction, the 2020 Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade featured a land acknowledgement, traditional rattle song, and blessing to honor the Wampanoag and Lenape people. Opalanietet Pierce (Lenape) and J Alison Henry (Tsalagi/'Nde/Arawaka) https://earthsinger.net/ acknowledged the Lenape territory of Manahatta where the parade takes place annually. Mashpee Wampanoag tribal members and language keepers Annawon Weeden and Brian Moskwetah Weeden provided an honoring in Wôpanâôt8âôk (Wampanoag language). This opening was accompanied by Indigenous Ambassadors living in the Northeast region including: Tanis Parenteau (Métis), John Scott Richardson (Haliwa-saponi/Tuscarora), Urie Ridgeway (Lenape), and music by Ty Defoe (Oneida/Ojibwe) https://www.indigenousdirection.com

One of the most powerful moments in the parade's history. Atonement, giving land back to its original stewards, returning to indigenous practices is how we return to foundational health and wellness. Getting a little biblical (and who doesn't love the bible)-- from the Sermon on the Mount. "Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them, may be compared to a wise man who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and yet it did not fall, for it had been founded on the rock."

You can build your house on the rock of truth or the sand of your fear. We are all blessed with a choice. In making a choice between the two in a stance of honesty and Love I invite you to consider how your actions to yourself and others will affect your own personal sense of peace.
