I know who you are.
I see you.
I see you when I look in the mirror and we look into each other's eyes.
I see you in every blade of grass in summer,
In every snowflake in winter,
In a single solitary cloud as it floats across the sky,
In loving surrender to the wind,
And in the sun and moon as their eternal dance so effortlessly frames our days and nights in beauty and grace.
I feel you in my heart.
Thank you for being with me today,
Enriching my life and strengthening my purpose.
Thank you for letting me hear what I most need to hear in this present moment,
The only one there really is.
Thank you for reminding me as your love surrounds me that you bless me with more when I freely and openly express my gratitude for everything that I already have.
The richness of my life,
Even in the worst of days,
My gifts and for the opportunity to share them in compassionate service to every living thing in my world.
The simple things,
Food,
Clothing,
A place to call home,
The love of Mother Earth and Father Sky,
My connection to all of the life that they nurture so selflessly.
This creative universe,
Which constantly expands my own understanding of what is possible for the dynamic change that life brings in every breath,
All of the good and all of the bad,
Because both teach me the lessons of my life.
And thank you for helping me understand that in community,
In our humanity,
We are one mind,
One heart,
One love and one spirit with heartfelt gratitude.
Thank you.
Amen.
