THE TRUE MEANING OF MOTHER’S DAY
http://www.truth-out.org/speakout/item/16307-celebrating-the-true-meaning-of-mothers-day
I’ve watched this extraordinary shadow dancing video several times in recent days, tears streaming down my face. Why?
Because each of us were created in the image of our Mother/Father God … a being of Love … a being of Light … a magnificent co-creator. What creative talent we have been given—each in his/her own unique way! What an enormous capacity to love we hold within our being! What fine-tuned resonance with beauty … with nature … with peace!
And yet, we have allowed ourselves to turn away … to see others as “enemies” … to accept killing each other as necessary … to fear those who differ from us.
We have forgotten who we are … why we were created … our mission in life on this planet.
This shadow dance demonstrates the paradox of who we have become … we are such stupendous beings of Love and Light … and yet, we behave in ways that turn away from our natural Love … our natural Light. By the way we respond to others, we create our own pain … our own wars.
ON THIS MOTHER’S DAY, LET US RETURN TO WHO WE TRULY ARE
&
DECLARE:
An interesting ending note: “Let Us” in biblical terminology carries the power of a command. We are not asking permission; we are commanding that we “let there be peace on Earth!”
