On this, the Third day in the Season of Christmas, let’s sing!
I wish for you, a voice!
* A voice that would sing.
* A voice that would be a voice for the voiceless in the world.
* A voice that would let elected politicians know when they are not standing up for justice, not speaking truth, not representing their constituents but themselves in their words, actions and decisions.
* A voice that would echo the cries of the innocent, the tortured, the unjustly tried and imprisoned, the abused, the homeless, the hungry, the minorities, the incarcerated, the lonely, the isolated, the pandemic front-line workers.
* A voice that would write letters to the editor and speak out on behalf of local, national and international injustices.
* A voice that would be kind in word, thought and action.
* A voice that would express innermost feelings to loved ones before it is too late.
* And a voice that speaks to one’s own heart with a gentle reminder of love, worth, and ‘becoming’ one’s full potential.
Be a voice
… and sing!
Happy Third Day of Christmas!

You write such beautiful and meaningful posts, June. I especially love the part about expressing our feelings to our loved ones while they are still here. I’ve often thought that we should all be able to hear the wonderful sentiments people express at funerals and the person is no longer around to hear them. I try to tell people how important they are in my life so they know how I feel about them. To you, dear June, I am always impressed by your tech. skills in posting things on Cyberscribes and your Soulistry blog. I am excited to see the creative art you produce and the new directions you pursued and added to your skills. Your giving nature in which you care for and about others is inspiring. Your love of gardening and birds that come to visit is another delightful expression of your personality. I am grateful to call you “friend”.
