I Believe

Well, my sister decided to go through with the chemotherapy as treatment for her cancer. I read it on Facebook. It's been hit and miss talking with my immediate family these days. My mother doesn't call so much and I'm never sure what's going on. I worry. I can't say I agree with my sister's decision, but it is her decision and I hope it works.

I still get that horrid feeling in the pit of my stomach when I think of the future and my family. I believe it is our duty to do everything in our power to stay healthy and prevent cancers and other diseases from happening to us. I believe we do have the choice to stay healthy, if we stay conscious about what our mind, body and spirit require. Listen....

I believe in the power of thought and in meditation as a lifelong practice to reach our inner selves and the Source power. I believe in Yoga and in physical activity as a meditation and as a means to live a long, healthy life. I believe in being present, letting go of the past and the future, and living in the now. What can I do today, right here, right now to bring me closer to my dreams and perfect mind body health?

I believe in compassion, resilience and peace for everyone. No more wars!!! I believe everyone has an equal right to air, water, food and health. I believe that we are all one, sharing this moment, on this earth...one giant living organism. If one part hurts, we all hurt and live in dysfunction. We must band together and love ourselves, each other and the planet. There is no room for judgment, elitism, egotism, or the exclusion of any one part. No room. Stop the stupidity.

I believe in natural healing and positive thinking. I believe in living responsibly and being aware of our own actions and how that might affect others, including humans, animals, plants and the Earth.

I believe the revolution of enlightenment is underway. And I know I can only do my part to encourage others to join, to awaken from the mindless capitalism culture we have been raised and brainwashed into. What is it all for? At the end of the day what do we have and what can we say?

It is my goal to speak these words before I go to sleep each night "I did my part to bring awareness to the world and to help repair our injured Earth."

Namaste
