A message from the Universe - sung by Phil Collins

[LaurenG]

Imagine that there are beings, (living inside our own consciousness) wiser than who we think we are and think hard about how valuable we really are, even though we may not realize this.

If we pull together, if we realize that we are "in this together" for the duration, we can make strides bigger and better than we can imagine alone. We have work to do.

Here's to all of us.

Come stop your crying
It will be all right
Just take my hand
Hold it tight

I will protect you
from all around you
I will be here
Don't you cry

For one so small,
you seem so strong
My arms will hold you,
keep you safe and warm
This bond between us
can't be broken
I will be here
Don't you cry

'Cause you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more

You'll be in my heart
No matter what they say
You'll be here in my heart, always

Why can't they understand
the way we feel
They just don't trust
what they can't explain
I know we're different but,
deep in side us
We're not that different at all

And you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more

Don't listen to them
'Cause what do they know
We need each other,
to have, to hold
They'll see in time
I know

When destiny calls you
You must be strong
I may not be with you
But you've got to hold on
They'll see in time
I know
We'll show them together

'Cause you'll be in my heart
Yes, you'll be in my heart
From this day on
Now and forever more

Oh, you'll be in my heart
No matter what they say
You'll be here in my heart, always
Always

1. we are all in this together, I believe that

what impacts one of us, impacts all of us. The greed and corruption at the top, the illness and poverty at the bottom, and everything in between. Those who are vibrating on a higher plane are going to have to vibrate pretty seriously to overcome that other noise.

There's a moment in the movie Phenomenon, with John Travolta, where he has what he thinks is an alien encounter and gets really, really smart as a result. At one point, when he's kind of losing it, trying to communicate all he knows to the folks around him, and he talks about an Aspen forest in Colorado, how it's all one organism, the trees look separate, but they're all connected at the roots. And then he tries to explain how it's the same with people. That's when they take him away. :)

2. Thank you, OB. The highlighted part is really relevant at this time in the world.

"When destiny calls you, you must be strong."

I don't know exactly what I'm here to do during this incarnation, but I certainly hope that I will have enough courage to do what is asked of me. What helps, of course, is to know that we're really never alone -- we are surrounded by amazing beings of light who love us more than we could ever imagine, and we also always have the people in this group to help us along the way. I don't know if I'm the only one who feels it, but I really consider this group to be a gift from the Universe. I truly consider it to be a sacred space.

Thank you for the inspirational lyrics, OB. :hug:
