The only constant in life is change. I am responsible for my own happiness. What is put out into the world, comes back to us. Offering prayers, meditations, energy and thoughts for healing and peace in our country and the world.  May the days ahead be brighter. May the seeds we sow create a garden of Love and Peace.   Namaste!

Prayer for the United States

As this Presidential Election comes to its finality, let us pray: May We the People follow the examples of those who created this great land of Liberty and Justice for all.  May we continue the tradition of sharing our bounty with those in need. And, may our privilege never cause us to lose sight of our responsibilities to Freedom.  Amen, Blessed Be, Aho!
