A gentle welcome this morning.
Pace yourself slowly and tenderly into this new day.
It is such a journey from the depths of sleep to full wakefulness.
I often want to prolong the journey so that I can receive the beginnings of the day without the template I usually wear,
But fresh,
Newly minted.
Let nothing disturb the lack of noise.
Create silence.
You don't have to start anything.
You are already breathing,
And that is all that is necessary.
Silence fills all the space around you and melts inside.
Inside you,
The dark,
Warm,
Juicy organs do their work,
Do what they are made to do.
They give you life for another day.
Offer your appreciation to all your unseen physical self.
Send your thanks down deep to the marrow of yourself and spread it throughout your body.
Down there,
Somewhere,
Your emotions move.
Usually they rest.
Now let them be restless.
There is health in movement,
Life in expression.
Encourage your feelings up to the light of day to express in sound and word.
So,
Too,
Does your spirit desire expression.
Coming up from your past,
All that you ever were,
Your spirit leaks through every pore,
Out to form your aura,
Or you're invisible to some signature.
May you be who you already are this day.
Be with a minimum of masks and charades.
Let yourself show.
Your gift today is juice.
