The Power of Unity in Action!

Last night was a very historical moment for the WORLD! Americans in the United States of America elected the first African American President in our country’s history. Last night wasn’t just about pride for people of color although I am EXTREMEMLY proud. As a woman of color reflecting back on where my race has come from, I am in awe, excitement and encouraged even more about the healing progress we all will make together.

It wasn’t just about beating the opponent or any political argument that we are hearing recapped on the news or in the papers. This was about CHANGE the WORLD wanted. This wasn’t just an American election and ballot poll results, this was the WORLD as a dominant energy answering the call for CHANGE in general. Change for peace, Change for economic balance, Change for equality and opportunity, Change for well-being.

As I looked at the TV screen of all those countries, cities in the US and just of people hopeful and excited – You could see that they knew in their hearts and minds that this defining moment was the ushering in of the winds change. It was absolute proof of how the dominant energy took the lead. The message was loud and clear from everyone to the universe and we now see the results.

Everyone benefits from the great new beginning we all will be embarking upon. There was a point in President-Elect Obama’s acceptance speech last night that brought tears to my eyes. He told the story of Ms. Ann Nixon Cooper, the 106 year old colored woman here in Atlanta. I thought about my grandmother who died a few years back at 103 years of age and how she had witnessed so much in this country too from the eyes of an African American woman. The stories she told and the things she had witnessed. So indeed, if there is any doubt that no matter how dire things may appear we all have the power and ability to make change for the better!

I am glad for all of us, young and old, rich and poor, black, white, Hispanic, gay, straight whoever you are – we are coming together positively in a unified way. Most importantly, our children and those to come after us will definitely benefit from the changes we set positively in motions today. Remember, as human beings we all rise and fall as one.

Today, we are rising to our true nature and higher selves. And as we continue to do this the dominant energy will continue to take the lead for the better. Yes, we can and we as a people – all in the spirit of unity – definitely will.
