When the blues hit or despair threatens a strategy will see you through the clouds, will connect you to your breath and will support the larger canvass of your life.<\/p>\n<p>As Stephen Sondheim wrote in the universally recognizable ultimate stage mother story turned best musical of all time GYPSY, &#8220;you gotta have a gimmick, if you wanna get ahead.&#8221;\u00a0\u00a0 Some passageways are tougher to move through.\u00a0 You need to have techniques and tools to get in a groove to move on down your personal road to enlightenment.<\/p>\n<p>Have a strategy to get through tough passages.

Nothing will be lacking.\u00a0 In the name of your personal freedom I join you in choosing complete release from whatever remains.<\/p>\n<p>May you have peace. May you have joy and may you have love. Whatever comes your way may you remember the truth of yourself and allow it to be met with grace and ease and may all your efforts be guided by a divine hand.<\/p>\n<p>I ask only that love\u2019s will be done and allow every action and thought to spring from this well of truth in absolute safety for us and with us and around us.<\/p>\n<p>This is our collective will.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/blog.beliefnet.com\/flightofthesoul\/files\/2013\/01\/Plato-Music-Flight-of-the-Soul.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2569\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/wp-media.beliefnet.com\/sites\/305\/2013\/01\/Plato-Music-Flight-of-the-Soul-300x201.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"201\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Enjoy this scene from Gypsy&#8230;.<\/p>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"You Gotta Have A Gimmick - from &quot;Gypsy&quot;\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gFRSawe33sA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Day Sixty Six of\u00a0 #LoveLand101<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Melanie Lutz is a screenwriter, author, and visual story teller living <em>in Los Angeles.\u00a0 Follow her on Twitter\u2026.<\/em><strong><em><\/em><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/mobilemel\" target=\"_blank\">Tweets by @mobilemel<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You got to get a strategy and implement it.
