Wishing...

Do
you wish the world were
better?
Let me tell you what to do.
Set a watch upon your actions,
Keep
them always straight and true.
Rid your mind of selfish motives,
Let your
thoughts be clean and high.
You can make a little Eden
Of the sphere you
occupy.

Do
you wish the world were wiser?
Well, suppose you make a start,
By accumulating
wisdom
In the scrapbook of your heart;
Do not waste one page on folly;
Live
to learn, and learn to live.
If you want to give men knowledge
You must
get it, ere you give.

Do
you wish the world were happy?
Then remember day by day
Just to scatter
seeds of kindness
As you pass along the way,
For the pleasures of the many
May
be ofttimes traced to one.
As the hand that plants an acorn
Shelters armies
from the sun.

Wheeler Wilcox (1850 – 1919)

to wish upon a star.

If
you could wish upon a star and have your dreams for humankind come
true, what would they be? What would you wish for? What is in your
heart for our world and for each other?

This
tag is for sharing our wishes for humankind. It is about bringing our
dreams into a form that is more tangible, real, and concrete. It is
about gathering our energy together and sending our wishes and hopes
into existence. It is about praying for divine assistance and support
as we bring new light and life into our world.

So,
if you are reading this, you are invited to wish upon a star. Whether
it means you pray to Heaven, hold an intention in your heart, chant a
mantra, sing a song, dance a dance, write a post, draw a picture, share
your dreams or......
Blessings...Ana
