When I checked my email inbox this morning, I found an email from Nimo Patel of Empty Hands Music. I heard him sing in Atlanta in August of 2015. I was very impressed by his music at the time, and once I learned more about him, I was even more impressed. In his email message, he offered words of wisdom and a video.

Dear Family and Friends of Empty Hands Music,
In this moment when many of us our unhappy, saddened and hurt by the decision we may have made, as a country, to select such a leader, is also the same moment we can take to use that energy for positive change. We vote for this type of leader every 4 years in America. But, really, everyday we have a chance to vote. Everyday we can vote by using less of earth’s resources to help fight global warming. Everyday we can vote by treating our women with the deepest unconditional love and respect. Everyday we can vote by treating all our brothers and sisters in our country and in the world, with genuine appreciation and gratitude for all the beauty and diversity we bring to each other. Every moment, in every day of our life is a seed being planted, is a vote being made. Lets move forward now voting each day through our actions, thoughts and heart. Through whatever darkness we perceive, lets try to shine light. May we all KEEP LOVING! Hope you can enjoy this Music Video during this moment in time. Love you ALL. We will move forward together now. But we all just need to focus on doing our part. Making our daily votes count. Love Love Love.
Blessings to you and sending lots of love!
-nimo and the Empty Hands family.

Dear Karuna, I appreciate this encouraging posting. It reflects what Amar and I and many others here in Portland are seeing. Our spiritual practices and actions in the world carry even more significance. We’ve been carrying “Bless You” on our lips and inner thoughts. It seems even more poignant with Leonard Cohen’s passing. He lived his life with eyes wide open and gifted us all. In his last few albums, he’s been saying goodbye. Much Love and may the White Flowers of Peace cover this earth with peace and healing, Karen Karima
