Let's get real! Take the steps needed to make change!
Value is denominated in money units. Self-worth is often measured by how we are able maintain our families and life style. Financial security means having enough money not to be dependent on good luck or good will. We objectify the world and everything in it and we want to personally own what could be for many in our community to share (in order to be a caring community.) Our money system affects our emotions; relationships and can promote either greed and scarcity or generosity and abundance. Money is simply the agreed upon medium of exchange acceptable to all community members. www.Truemanity.com will measure worth by the good that they spread around them; by their guts to wear their hearts on their sleeve and show their love; respect and caring to community members young and old.
Money is the instrument with which we run our lives. We want to use this instrument to enhance our community and nature; promote peace and justice as well as developing solutions to needs in the community. Our goal is to inspire you to take control of your life and participate with your community and imbue you with ambition and optimism to partake of the unlimited possibilities to create wealth.

The Dance
by Oriah Mountain Dreamer
I have sent you my invitation,
the note inscribed on the palm of my hand by the fire of living.
Don’t jump up and shout, “Yes, this is what I want! Let’s do it!”
Just stand up quietly and dance with me.
Show me how you follow your deepest desires,
spiraling down into the ache within the ache,
and I will show you how I reach inward and open outward
to feel the kiss of the Mystery, sweet lips on my own, every day.
Don’t tell me you want to hold the whole world in your heart.
Show me how you turn away from making another wrong without abandoning yourself
when you are hurt and afraid of being unloved.
Tell me a story of who you are,
and see who I am in the stories I live.
And together we will remember that each of us always has a choice.
Don’t tell me how wonderful things will be . . . some day.
Show me you can risk being completely at peace,
truly okay with the way things are right now in this moment,
and again in the next and the next and the next. . .
I have heard enough warrior stories of heroic daring.
Tell me how you crumble when you hit the wall,
the place you cannot go beyond by the strength of your own will.
What carries you to the other side of that wall, to the fragile beauty of your own humanness?
And after we have shown each other how we have set and kept the clear, healthy boundaries that help us live side by side with each other, let us risk remembering that we never stop silently loving
those we once loved out loud.
Take me to the places on the earth that teach you how to dance,
the places where you can risk letting the world break your heart.
And I will take you to the places where the earth beneath my feet and the stars overhead make my heart whole again and again.
Show me how you take care of business
without letting business determine who you are.
When the children are fed but still the voices within and around us shout that soul’s desires have too high a price,
let us remind each other that it is never about the money.
Show me how you offer to your people and the world
the stories and the songs
you want our children’s children to remember.
And I will show you how I struggle not to change the world,
but to love it.
Sit beside me in long moments of shared solitude,
knowing both our absolute aloneness and our undeniable belonging.
Dance with me in the silence and in the sound of small daily words,
holding neither against me at the end of the day.
And when the sound of all the declarations of our sincerest
intentions has died away on the wind,
dance with me in the infinite pause before the next great inhale
of the breath that is breathing us all into being,
not filling the emptiness from the outside or from within.
Don’t say, “Yes!”
Just take my hand and dance with me.
Dedicated to my best friend........always.

We Are ONE By David Gould
Though we are many, We are ONE
From every corner of the globe
Talking all of our fabulous tongues,
From every walk of life we come
From East, West, North and South
From every direction we come
To join together as One
Though we are many, we are ONE
Our cultures and cosmologies differ
Our customs, habits and rituals differ
Our clothes, jewellery and food differ
Our homes, hair and make up differ
And yet for all these many differences
We are the same, our cause is One
Though we are many, we are ONE
The way we pray, and where we pray
The words we use and direction we face
The gifts we bring and we receive
All may seem different to the casual eye And yet there can be but one Creator Whom we have all learnt to serve Though we are many, we are One
Our diversity brings many bright hues
To this our land of green and grey
Here our aim is wide inclusiveness
Rather than other’s narrow exclusivity
For to include is to honour and love
To accept, welcome and to receive
Though we are many, we are ONE
Today, our hands are joined
Our thoughts, joys and sorrows joined
Our hopes and our wishes are joined
Our friendships and families are joined
For we come together as one
To learn from each other as one
Though we are many, we are ONE

Social media going wild
Just a quick thought about the social media...
How much time does the average person invest in the upkeep of their sites and connecting with others?
I see the social value...but the claim to it having monetary value is questionable?
The value I see is that one is able to build a social profile that people understand what you stand for; what your aims are: and what you are doing to meet them and pretty well building an image of you and your enviroment.
This attracts like-minded people and enbles one to go into lively debate about one's world view.
The opportunity to expand one social circle to places;that one would normally not get to know one another; to me is the most exiting aspect.

I salut the speech of:-
Her Excellency the Right Honourable Michaëlle JeanAddress to the Business Women’s Association of South Africa
Pretoria, South Africa, Wednesday, December 6, 2006
I am also extremely impressed by the exceptional work of women who have no academic background, some of whom are illiterate, but whose commitment to the well-being of their communities is remarkable.
They enrich their fellow citizens with their good judgment, their knowledge, and their wisdom.
They are key in creating social consensus around difficult, but unavoidable, issues such as family planning, physical integrity of girls, violence against women, access to education, food security, crime prevention and environmental protection.
I must say that I am particularly touched by the way all these women, from such different horizons, can pool their efforts and work towards the common good.
I have always believed that the real power of women lays in their capacity to put forward at all times the human dimension of any given situation. Women nurture that sense of togetherness and foster a strong community spirit.
Empowering women is empowering a nation.
Let’s say it together …
The idea is to believe that we are making a difference. We must seize every opportunity to speak out and to participate fully in the development of society.
We must believe in our dreams and turn them into reality.
We must always believe that everything is always possible.
