A Treasure Found in a Dollar Store

Last week I went to a dollar store to pick up some little things for Angelina’s birthday party. She is four and she decided that she wanted her birthday at my house, with my family.

While at the store, I saw a book entitled “Imagine” by Marianne Williamson, and immediately I thought about John Lennon’s song “Imagine”.

As I picked up the book I noticed that the title Imagine had a phase under it … It said:

 IMAGINE what America could be in the 21st Century

I turned the book over to see what it said and the last paragraph said:

“All authors royalties from the sales of Imagine will be donated to the Global Renaissance Alliance, a non-profit organization dedicated to imagining and working toward a better world for future generations.”

There are many authors represented in the book expressing their imagination of the highest possibilities of what America can be, and what changes have to occur for this to happen. They also challenge each individual, political party or institution, to plan how they can contribute to such a change and if they can see the deeper story trying to emerge within this nation and the world.

The world is dying for a significant positive change, and we can make it happen. Just follow the simple rule “Be the change you want to see in the world,” a quote by Mahatma Gandhi, and then imagine John Lennon’s words coming true … “The world can be as one.”

Imagine people believing that “Thoughts are things…choose the good ones.” Imagine goodness, kindness and love happening everyday, in everyone’s lives.

Imagine finding a treasure in a dollar store … Why isn’t it on the best sellers list? Why isn’t it taught in every school?

Imagine “Let there be Peace on Earth and let it begin with me” is a song the echoes in our hearts and minds and becomes our course of action. Imagine that!

Be a blessing to others.
