Lions for Lambs

I am AMAZED at how fast prayers are answered when I let go of what I expect to happen, and flow with the river of time, keeping my eyes open to what I want to happen... in only a matter of ONE week I have found myself amidst an ocean of like minded individuals. By mistake, I found myself in a house full of people that all had one goal, the same goal as I do: to make the world a more enjoyable place for all. It is easily the BEST mistake I've ever made. I thought I was calling to join a support art-group for survivors of abuse, and ended up in a meeting for a non-profit that is only just beginning to get of the ground. Talk about turning around, away from the past and toward the future...
and then tonight I went to digg.com and found a link to a movie: Lions for Lambs! WOW! And suddenly I am intensely aware that I am truly NOT ALONE, and I find hope in my dreams, because I know that there are others that are not only dreaming, but DOING! There are MANY OTHERS that are working toward that common goal of creating a more loving world.

I find myself overwhelmed with HOPE and JOY! I haven't felt this high (from a sound reason) in so long I'm not sure when it last was... but it doesn't even matter, because I am tired of looking to the past for answers. It has gotten me nowhere I want to be. It has been like treading water in a sea of pain, when all I've wanted was to get out of that place and up onto the warm shores to bask in the love that exists in the depths of the world. And now, I can feel myself moving, swimming against small waves but with the tide, and I can see the sand, and finally I feel HOPE.

There is soooooooo much more I want to write about, but it's late, and for once I feel like I will sleep soundly... tomorrow then. But before I go-

I want to express my love and gratitude to any and all who are doing what they can to turn the dream into a reality... you- who I may not even know- are my inspiration and my hope! Thank you!

To any that are not putting your energy into this dream, may you find inspiration through myself and those I speak of... It is possible to succeed!
