What the World Needs Now...

Those of you who are old enough to remember, these are the opening lyrics to a popular 1965 song, "anthem" if you will:

"What the world needs now, is love, sweet love
It's the only thing that there's just too little of...."

Here's the link to the original song. I recommend that you listen as you read my blog:

I went to sleep with these lyrics in my head and woke up with them still there...a clear sign from my team that it was time to write.
My friends, I connect with Spirit everyday. Everyday I hear their messages of love, healing and peace. They do not want us suffering in the world as it is. They only want the best for us: joy, happiness, peace and love.

It's time that we want the same for ourselves. 

You say that you do, too? Well let's take action, together.
It's only one simple step and very easy to do:
Make every decision out of love. Operate only with love as your primary outcome.
Here are some ways to help you notice when love is predominantly necessary:

• Need to discipline your children? Do so from love, not anger or frustration. Love for teaching them right from wrong; teaching them morality and faith in humanity.
• Love yourself, and then love others exactly the same way. It will make you notice the world a whole lot differently.
• Stop the blame game. Everything is not someone else's fault. Realize the role that you play in being present at the exact moment this event occurred. YOU are a player too, my friend. Self-reflect, err on the side of love, and don't blame.
• Speak up in the name of love. Dig down deep, find your voice, and use it for love.
• It's easy to love when love is easy; much harder when fear is present. Remember, fear is the absence of love. Once you insert love, fear disappears.

I'm going to repeat this: Once you insert love into a situation, fear disappears, and all of fear's companions: anger, frustration, hatred. Dissolve the fears in your reality. They're not worth carrying around, trust me.

What the world needs now, is love, sweet love. Thank you Burt Bacharach. It couldn't be more true than today than it was 50 years ago.

PS: And here's Tom Clay's 1971 remix version with social commentary. Have a tissue handy for this one. If you let it play until the next video, there is another updated version with more current events:
