“Change is Gonna Come”


Change is Gonna Come (From: DesertRatDan youtube.com)

Yes, my friends we need a change- a real change! It’s time to unite as Americans, not as Blacks, Whites, Asians, Native Americans, but one nation under God. Science has empirically told us that underneath the skin we are the same. The animal kingdom does not discriminate among themselves because of the different hues that a butterfly, a dog, a cat possesses, etc. Why do we?

It’s about saving our natural resources- it’s been said that if we don’t learn to live together as one race- the human race, we shall perish as fools. We have been given the mandate to be fruitful and multiply the Earth. Not destroy it with toxic landfills, polluted waters, cities and neighborhoods on the verge of foreclosure and bankruptcy, students that can’t read or write, but have their own cell phones and I-pods. Who are they calling--the children in Africa, Asia, India that are starving, that would love the opportunity to attend school and eat the food that our children turn their noses up at? Parents- what are you teaching your children that will leave a legacy of goodwill and empowerment for the next generation?

It’s about not just saving America- but the world. It’s time for world leaders to come together and work collectively as one force for good. One man, one President is not the answer. We can elect someone who embodies this message, but the real change is needed within the heart and actions of each and every individual on this planet.

If you want to see things differently, if you want a better world, start with yourself and then the collective energy of others will form a synergism that will truly change the world. We must put down our weapons of warfare and pick up the mantle of peace, negotiation, compromise, love and forgiveness and share this Earth that all men and women are entitled to by their divine birthright. God told us that when my people who call upon his name would humble themselves and seek His face, then He would heal the land.

Yes we do need change, and a “change is gonna come,” but we must be the initiators in order to be Winners at life. Barack is right; change does come from the bottom to the top.

Stay Blessed!
