Miscellaneous Gratitude Moment

Yesterday at about 7:20 AM I had a gratitude moment right here. It has been a looooooong time since I had one of those. I felt that THING. That LOVE THING. That OH MY GOD I AM SOOOOOO FUCKING LUCKY thing. I shouted to my son, "Get my camera out of my blue bag! Quick! Take a pic out of the windshield!"

Prayer for taking care of people

Into my will, let there pour strength.
Into my feeling, let there pour warmth.
Into my thinking, let there shine light,
That I may nurture [this person] with enlightened purpose,
Caring with heart's love,
And bringing wisdom into all things.

Strength of the Earth
Breath of the Trees
Warmth of the Animals
Inner Light in Me

First Snow

In the Head the Power of Faith.

In the Heart the Might of Love.

In the full human being all-sustaining Hope.

Say this everyday to help yourself face the future without fear

I will enter this day like water.
Water is selfless.
It flows to places hidden and forgotten.
It renounces boundaries,
taking shape only when it is contained.
I will be like that --
Like water
Waiting to be contained.

Say this everyday to help yourself remember that it is the task of the human being to bring love to the world

I arise today through the strength of Love

Love's wisdom to guide my heart
Love's eye to guide my seeing
Love's ear to guide my hearing
Love's word to guide my speaking

Love in the heart of everyone who thinks of me
Love in the mouth of everyone who speaks of me
Love in every eye that sees me
Love in every ear that hears me

I arise today through the strength of Love
