Eternal presence,

Before the machinery of thought begins to turn,

Before the first decision rises like a ripple in still water,

Let there be awareness.

I stand here,

At the threshold of morning,

Not to ask for ease or favor,

But for clarity,

To see what is essential,

To hear what is true,

To speak what is kind.

Grant me the discipline to pause between impulse and action,

To breathe before I respond,

To listen before I interpret.

Let my work today not be a contest of wills,

But a conversation with purpose.

In the quiet architecture of this day,

May I build with integrity rather than ambition.

May my competence be guided by compassion,

And my intelligence softened by humility.

When uncertainty crosses my path,

Let it remind me that mystery is not the enemy of reason,

But its teacher.

And when I am tempted by noise,

Bring me back to the silence from which wisdom speaks.

As I begin this day,

I do not seek perfection,

Only presence.

I do not seek control,

Only coherence between thought and heart.

May my mind be lucid,

My words measured,

My actions luminous.

And when evening comes,

May I recognize in what I have done a quiet alignment with something greater than myself.
