We make our world out of seeing what we want to see. \u00a0Today is the day to accentuate the positive.<\/p>\n

Johnny Mercer’s lyric to Harold Arlen’s music for the song\u00a0Ac-Cent-Tchu-Ate the Positive\u00a0<\/a>is luscious and as always with these standards totally profound — published in 1944 capturing the mood of a world looking toward the end of the second World War…<\/p>\n

You’ve got to accentuate the positive<\/em>
\nEliminate the negative<\/em>
\nAnd latch on to the affirmative<\/em>
\nDon’t mess with Mister In-Between<\/em><\/p>\n

You’ve got to spread joy up to the maximum
\nBring gloom down to the minimum
\nHave<\/em>\u00a0faith or pandemonium’s
\nLiable to walk upon the scene<\/p>\n

In filtering life in love, accentuating the positive side of things, you experience more positivity and more love. \u00a0It is the way of love, expanding without reserve.<\/p>\n

In allowing this practice of love to permeate our thoughts, in letting our vision to explore the loving\u00a0perception in every given situation before us the truth, beyond judgement is revealed.<\/p>\n

It is all of our job to sing our song with love and to provide an example of the purest grace of our being in giving birth in each moment to what wants to be born in ourselves and those we encounter.<\/p>\n

We are Misters and Mistresses of the loving word, thought and action pied pipering a new way into a new day. What we say and do matters. How we focus our expressions matter. \u00a0Let Love lead the way. \u00a0Spread Joy to the maximum and without fail have faith in what lives and breathes in all things.<\/p>\n

May you feel connected, comforted and full of peace<\/p>\n

Today. Now. Always.<\/p>\n

May you see life in its full beauty unencumbered by the weight of judgment<\/p>\n

May you let go of your defenses allowing the true nature of peace to enter your heart.<\/p>\n

With Infinite Love and Gratitude<\/p>\n

\"accentuate<\/a><\/p>\n

Take Mel\u2019s Love Land pledge. \u00a0For the #Next100 Days I am going to consider the possibility there is another way\u2026.<\/p>\n

I won’t\u00a0focus on the negative, I will accentuate the positive<\/p>\n

I won\u2019t worry about what might happen, I will celebrate what does<\/p>\n

I will have a miracle.<\/p>\n

I won\u2019t talk about war, I will feel peace.<\/p>\n

I won\u2019t talk about what isn\u2019t working.\u00a0I will experience what is.<\/p>\n

I won\u2019t complain about what people don\u2019t do.\u00a0I will appreciate what they do.<\/p>\n

Cura Et Labore \u201cwith care and work\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I am going to allow myself to be uplifted.<\/div>\n
And be willing to see change. In a new light.<\/div>\n
In what\u2019s remembered.<\/div>\n
With Love<\/div>\n
