Love is the motivation behind every yearning.... In all of life, Love is seeking to discover itself. We com einto this world, and we experience a profound forgetfulness; we are asleep. Everything that happens from then on is the process of waking up to the fact that Love brought us here, that we are loved by a Beneficent Unseen Reality, and that the core of our being is Love. The whole purpose and meaning of creation is to discover the secret of Love.
I have a dream
- of people recognizing the giftedness uniquely theirs,
- of people standing tall in their gifts and using them to enrich the lives of others;
- of people coming to a deeper union of God dwelling within them and a deeper communion with one another.
- of peace and harmony reigning -- for power would be in docility to expressing one's gifts ...
I have a dream
- of a people drawn together out of a shared vision, a new way of living together,
- of each individual in their rightful place based on gifts,
- of men and women standing side by side serving together to bring peace and justice to the city,
- of a society based on deep trust that within each person
- is a well of goodness, beauty and truth longing to express itself for the good of all ... and in freeing this inner well, an ocean of love that could fill the world.
