I watched the Obama, Yes We Can, speech on You Tube this weekend. I had heard the speech before, but this time; the speech took on a completely different meaning. It was almost spiritual. I watched the speech twice and than saw there was a music video. So, I watched the music video by Will.i.am, and before I knew it; I was sitting in a pool of tears. The speech and the lilting music by Will.i.am just reached into my heart and pulled my soul out, breathed new life into it, and then placed it back into my chest. I walked out of my studio hours later with a renewed energy of invincibility, that I had not experienced since my early twenties. I felt as though I was BACK!! Only better, NEW and IMPROVED!!
I know that on the surface this is a political speech. But it goes far beyond your affiliation to the democratic party, republican party or independent. It speaks to the individual souls of us all. Maybe one soul can not change a town, but collective souls can change the world. How? ... By example. The willingness to say YES I CAN, when all who surround you say NO You Can't! The belief in yourself that you can make a difference. And that any positive small change will eventually create a tidal wave of change.
The only thing you have to do is say....
YES I CAN!! do anything I choose to do.
YES I CAN!! dare to live the life of my choice.
YES I CAN!! be free to be me!!!
YES I CAN!! make a difference in my life and in others for the good.
And YES YOU CAN!! as well.
....and eventually you will believe.
I strongly urge you to watch the Obama speech and Will.i.am music video. I have added the link below for your convenience. It might possible change your life. And if it doesn't, perhaps impact your day.
LIVE YOUR LIFE ... YOUR WAY... YES YOU CAN!!!
