It seems to me that our one day celebration could be for all women. Not only Mother’s.
This UTube video brought tears of respect and gratitude to me for those who have gone before us.

Women have a resilience, a passion and commitment to make the world a better place for everyone.
We, as women, know the labor of bringing life into the world and sustaining life through our labors.
We women have a gift of being able to balance many different activities and callings with grace.
We, as women, know the difficulties of balancing finances, schedules, differing interests and needs.
We women must always sustain our own life energies to be able to fulfill our roles in families and society.
I honor the power of women to accomplish without complaining.
I respect the peace in women who end conflicts before they begin.
I support the freedom of women to listen with their heart and follow their inner guidance.
I encourage the wisdom of women to give what is needed in the way it will be received.
Each woman has learned from those who have gone before.
Conscious women give what benefits healing and harmony rather than wounding with words.
The awakened ones are remembering to nurture and nourish as well as work for provision.
Those who remember ourselves as the center of our families teach with Love and not fear.
Women have changed the world.
Women have brought food and education to the impoverished.
Women have taught how to live and love with respect and freedom for all.
Women have raised the children of the world to freely create what is good and whole for all.
And now it is time for us to re-evaluate our choices.
We must have the courage to correct our errors and those of the past.
We must forgive teaching fear and forgetting Love.
We must remember to nurture and nourish the values that sustain our families.
We women must see ourselves as powerful….not in making money…but in making Love.
We must remember the primary function that benefits everyone, to nurture the values that matter.
We need to step back into the role of creating a home with family meals and caring for one another.
We must realize that someone needs to nurture the children to teach them Love.
Love is our function and Loving is the way.
Bringing peace is our function and inner Peace is the way.
Teaching Self esteem and confidence is our function and loving ourselves is the way.
We can change the world by remembering our inner strength, courage and limitless Love.
Let us all be the Best We Can Be!
Loving us all in remembering to be Love,
Betty Lue
The 12 Principles of Attitudinal Healing
1. The essence of our being is love.
2. Health is inner peace, healing is letting go of fear.
3. Giving and receiving are the same.
4. We can let go of the past and of the future.
5. Now is the only time there is, and each instant is for giving.
6. We can learn to love ourselves and others by forgiving rather than by judging.
7. We can become love finders rather than fault finders.
8. We can choose and direct ourselves to be peaceful inside, regardless of what is happening outside.
9. We are students and teachers to each other.
10. We can focus on the whole of life, rather than the fragments.
11. Since love is eternal, change need not be viewed as fearful.
12. We can always perceive others as either extending love or giving a call for help.
Attitudinal Healing affirms that we are responsible for our thoughts and whatever feelings we experience.
Attitudinal Healing encourages us to re-examine our relationships, bringing them into the present by releasing past judgments and grievances.
Attitudinal Healing reminds us that perception is a mirror of what is in our mind.
