And then if you can remember...

Hey there everyone!!

In high-school I delivered a Remembrance Day speech that explained how our generation could not “remember”, and perhaps we could instead “acknowledge” what happened in order to better value our current day freedoms.

While acknowledging is important, today I feel that we have shifted far beyond reinforcing this old-school paradigm of global violence.

It’s 11/11/11, and now we have the opportunity to authentically live a life of conscious co-creation -- where we collaborate with each other -- instead of adhering to institutional authorities and government propaganda.

It’s time to get back to the basics, and truly be with one another.

It’s about people.  And if you can remember, remember the lyrics to this song sung by Dionne Warwick, Elton John, Gladys Knight and Stevie Wonder:



And I never thought I'd feel this way
And as far as I'm concerned
I'm glad I got the chance to say
That I do believe I love you

And if I should ever go away
Well, then close your eyes and try to feel
The way we do today
And then if you can remember

Keep smilin', keep shinin'
Knowin' you can always count on me, for sure
That's what friends are for
For good times and bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
That's what friends are for

Well, you came and opened me
And now there's so much more I see
And so by the way I thank you

Whoa, and then for the times when we're apart
Well, then close your eyes and know
These words are comin' from my heart
And then if you can remember, oh

Keep smiling, keep shining
Knowing you can always count on me, for sure
That's what friends are for
In good times, in bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
Oh, that's what friends are for

Let’s love the world together...

Love,
