Declaration of Interdependence
(Plant Your Dream!)

Declaration of Interdependence

Date:   5/17/2019 7:29:41 PM ( 5 y ago)

Some of my core trauma
Is in the context of the Religious
tradition of my birth. I was born into an orthodox Jewish household. My life journey, and life purpose, took me in away from many orthodox practices, but there will always be a longing for the opportunity to feel a part, rather than separate from blood family relations.

Mother’s Day and my sister Vivian’s birthday—she is four years older than I am—gave me the opportunity to feel into some of these feelings once again, and very much surrender my own positions to simple give the love and kindness I desire to give wherever possible. A lot of healing took place.

Near 72, a rather alive 72, I have a desire to share connection with family, and my comfort zone is still very much challenged in orthodox settings.

I have just as many rules as my orthodox relatives, they just aren’t all the same rules.

Is there a way to make peace with these emotions?

I am looking at reprinting my books now, as part of a legacy I want to leave, and one of these books is called Psalms to Anne published around 1994 —dedicated to Anne Frank—the teen who died in the Holocaust—as well as Lori Kaye, the woman murdered in a synagogue the last day of Passover 2019,

I felt very unsettled and unsafe to imagine that places of worship can be invaded. The death was less than 20 miles from home.

The day of her funeral, I felt fear to attend. I did attend one memorial at her home. I shared compassion with her husband.

Must we kill each other because we have different ways to see God? can we come to accept each other in spite of our different strongly held beliefs?

So much to say! Where does safety begin?

In recent weeks, I have responded to these deaths by reading a Declaration of Interdependence that appears in this book.

One line reads:

“Let everyone know my Declaration of Interdependence to you.”

One of the most difficult places to feel at peace is within our own families of origin.

Keep me in your good thoughts.
So much more to learn.

World Peace Celebration
Declaration of Interdependence
Written by Leslie Goldman

I declare the Earth my home and I the steward and friend
of the Earth and all its offspring in every race,
culture, and consciousness.

Let every living thing know me as a refuge,
a space of safety, an open portal welcoming
new visions and human possibilities, a sanctuary of Peace,
a protector of the sacred child in everyone.

I too carry a torch of liberty.
Come share my warmth and relight my candle flame
with love and inspiration should I ever forget who I am.
I promise to defend the Peace through being a Peacemaker.

I declare myself a responsible citizen of the planet,
taking strength and security in this agreement.
This is my assurance and insurance against war,
that within me, I am making Peace.
Let everyone know from this moment my declaration
of interdependence to you, to my city, to my country,
to my planet, to my universe.
Let everyone know of my commitment to experience
unity through diversity and personal and world transformation.
We are seeds of Peace;
I am the Earth and the fullness thereof.
