This is for my friends here and all you sweet lurkers who can't seem to get enough of us. Love and blessings to you all.

" There comes a time, not too long into the journey to God, when the realization that the world could work beautifully if we would give it the chance, begins to excite us. It becomes our new motivation. The news isn’t how bad things are. The news is how good they could be. And our own activity could be part of the unfolding of Heaven on earth. There is no more powerful motivation than to feel we’re being used in the creation of a world where love has healed all wounds. "

--Marianne Williamson (from A Return to Love)

Thanks Diane, that's another keeper!

One of the songs that I mentioned on the "Name that tune" thread is called "Golden Streets" by the group Creed. It's about a man who has such wonderful dreams at night about how the world could be a beautiful place that he doesn't want to wake up in the morning. Then he decides to try to make the dreams come true. One line in the song talks about what needs to be done to make the real world match the dream world:

"The only difference is to let love replace all our hate."
