The most beautiful video I've seen in quite some time, quite possibly ever here on youtube.
Listen to the message, it's timeless, and crosses every line.. the sentiment is beautiful, and important. It speaks to the heart of all peoples everywhere. More relevant now then ever, and more important for all of us to keep in mind at all times... this might be the strength required to carry us across the coming storms..

Peace Love and Light to All :):)

p.s. I found this on a youtube channel that has only one video, and it's owner has not signed in for over a year..
the message moved me so much that I had to share it the most direct way I know... to borrow it and re-post it

  • Beautiful, amazing and insightful words from a woman who has suffered much pain, but all that radiates out of her is Pure Love. Wonderful Post.

  • Thank you for sharing, Love this!  :)

  • that was just lovely, what a lady

  • The first time I saw her recite this poem was on Oprah. It moved me then and it has the same effect now.

    Thanks for posting.

    Peace~

  • Check out Ben Harper's live version (in song) ~

  • I watched it twice, and I know I will watch it again. Each time it touches my heart, and I take something else from her words. Written from a heart that speaks for the world, everyone should listen to this one more than one time. God Blessed her with wisdom, and we are so lucky she shares that with us.
