In this moment, life begins anew. This is the first moment I am in. An opportunity to begin again And live life in the fullest sense of the word possible. To give thanks for the breathing as it enters me. To give thanks for it in the stillness At the bottom of the breath To give thanks for the breath when it leaves me I am here and I am here in the fullness of life All together as many trillions of beings, As one being, As one being among many trillions. I am a part here of the wholeness of being, An expansive force of awareness That reaches out beyond where I am to all places, everywhere. And together we are my awareness And the awareness of every atom, molecule, and quanta In the universe. Yet I don't need to think on a scale that large. It does not help me. Rather, I sense on a scale that large. And my sensation becomes very detailed. So that I am aware of the consciousness of each atom in me. And for this sensation, I give thanks. An extraordinarily fine vibration penetrates me and connects me to everything there is. And I move deeper into this sensation, Allowing the subtle but intelligent force of its gravity to pull me together here. To help me to become vertical inside. The mind is as still as a pond in the woods with no breeze on it. It is transparent, Without a ripple to interfere with it. And as this mind is still, So this being is filled with a new and different kind of light. And for this, in stillness In joy, In sorrow, In consciousness, I give thanks.
Giving thanks
The search for a path through life
