Soulful Singing

I love this Navajo chant that I heard sung by Barbara McAffee at the 2008 ICF Annual Conference. She is a wonderfully soulful singer. Here is her mission....
I sing with the sweet breath of God
And I dance on a living planet
My body is holy water
And I dream a world made new


Here are the words to the Navajo Chant

When you born you cried
And the world rejoiced
Live your life so that when you die
The world cries and you rejoice.

I wonder what things I can add to my life so that I can connect to spirit more often. What about you?

Courage

What does it take to be courageous and why would you do it in the first place? A few thoughts come to mind. Feeling so strongly about something that you say or do what you think is right in spite of what other people's reactions might be. Belief that what you say or do is for the greater good for your well being and/or the well being of others. This American Psychologist is, in my opinion, very courageous. I wonder if she thinks so? This short YouTube video clip is a must see. I imagine it might not be on the internet for long, so watch it as soon as you are able.
