Yes, YES, Yes! Does anyone remember the 1970's song (Yes I'm that old) by the New Seekers, "I'd Like To Teach The World To Sing - In Perfect Harmony? It was recorded for a Pepsi commercial and was so popular that they changed a few lines and made a hit song. I couldn't remember all the words, just "Honey bees and apple trees and snow white turtle doves" So I made up some of my own:
I was feeling down til I read your text. We need to spread love over and over and over again. This too shall pass. Thank you so much. You are our hope!!!
I agree, Marianne! I have never seen so much hate in America but I have also never seen so much unity for freedom and such an outpouring of love! These are TRUE patriots out there, in the face of tear gas, with their banners and their shouts! I see them every day on the street corners! I honk and they wave. They are bravely standing up to ICE to protect their immigrant neighbors! I can FEEL the love in the air and people like you are spreading it! They know they are foundational in America and are their brothers and sisters! I am a great admirer of you and your courage to “walk your talk!”
In a time where dissents are being threatened, you are shouting truth to power at the top of your voice. Every day I feel we are becoming more victorious! We are on the side of truth and truth always prevails! Love also Trumps Trump’s hate!
People love to rise up, stand up, speak up and show up - but few want to go down and sit at the bottom. It is in the darkness, the Tomb Time, that spiritual purpose is deciphered. Check out King’s Letter from a Birmingham Jail (Tomb?). Peace Whenever Possible, Dwight Lee Wolter.
Thank you… taking time to learn history and think individually to better understand how we got here and above all that GOOD is also happening… it is hard, and we do what we can to keep hope and democracy alive. 🤍🤍🙏
Hanuman, this is fabulously upbeat! Thank you for sharing it with us! It's dancing music for certain. Is this the piece done by Indivisible.org. or what source? Wherever it came from--it's wonderful. So positive! Joan

Dear Friends,
I have been feeling so deeply violated and betrayed by Donald Trump’s totalitarian takeover of our democracy, that I felt compelled to write and produce the music video - RISING UP.
In collaboration with my filmmaker/partner Robert Corsini, Rising Up is a call to action protesting Trump’s trashing of democracy. As a long-time musician/activist since the Civil Rights Movement, I wrote an adaptation of the traditional freedom song Ain’t Gonna Let Nobody Turn Me Around, in addressing the immediacy of these troubled times.
With lead singer BJ Lark, musician and engineer Jason Burke (who played bass, guitar, and sang), and vocalist Sondra Dunkin, I recorded the song where I now live in Virginia. I then brought the recording to be edited, mixed, and mastered in Los Angeles by producer/engineer Mark Mattson, while enrolling Robert, my long-time partner in music-video and film production.
The result is Rising Up, capturing the spirit of the nationwide NoKings rallies.

"Tomb days", 40 years in the Wilderness or being an old hippie at heart, my favorite... a bit of tough sledding during the 200 year transition between the Age of Pisces and the Age of Aquarius. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rCXSA_biSw4 Thank you Marianne... for reminding us about what is really going on.
Love you bringing up the Age of Aquarius--reminds me of seeing the musical "Hair", the love-rock musical back in the early '70s! Thanks for a good memory.
Marianne and all her followers: I want you to get to know Rev. Cameron Trimble? Along with TRANSFORM, her messages, called Piloting Faith are incredibly insightful and inspiring perspectives that are so needed now. Check her out at https://substack.com/@camerontrimble
Thank you! Following embracing and being with the Loving Unified Field.. And we must learn how to think creatively outside the boxes and systems our culture created... We must GO BEYOND to find the 'new.' Love your posts. ty! We will get through this. There were worse times and our ancestors anchored in. We are now in a evolutionary phase and though it feels like 'war' it isn't... we're just green shoots coming through the cemented walls. <3
AHHHHH. I SO LOVE hearing you speak on this insanity! Thank you!!! My spiritual self struggles to make sense of it all. You make it make sense. Thank you!
Marianne, This mornings meditation is from Chapter 17: VII: THE CONDITION OF PEACE… (I call it “Let it Be.” ). In memory of John Lennon … You said; “You think without the ego all will be chaos, but without the ego all will be love.” Currently; in our political situation. It seems like everything is driven by One or a few men’s (people’s) egos…. Which brings profound chaos… suffering on a world-wide, material level. Every day I pray for peace in our world. I have dedicated each day to doing at least one kind thing… Whether it’s going down to my neighbor and working out any issue we had with each other, picking up discarded plastic bottles and cans along my walk and throwing them into the recycling bin, offering a smile or help to people who I see throughout my day. And of course, spending time each morning with ACIM & quiet meditation. I’ve been to protests as well… Always in a peaceful manner. I have every confidence that “this too shall pass“… it’s sad that we have to keep going around in circles, coming back to lessons over and over both within our personal life and our historical life in the world… but perhaps that’s the point, learning can be a struggle… searching for our direction isn’t always easy. And I believe if we dedicate our lives to discipline and finding God‘s love, we will prevail. We have to be the ones to make the offering… bringing light into the darkness. And that light is from a font of love. 💟☮️

I'd like to teach the world to live
in perfect harmony.
I'd like to see war disappear
and everyone live free.
I wish to see hearts open wide
and joy in every face.
The goodness shining on the earth
would light up every space.
Oh, we know what to do.
Our hearts know the way.
It's up to me and to you
To make a new day.
SO LETS DO IT!!!!!
Here it is Penny :)
