Peaceful Gratitude

Stillness
of rolling clouds
Majesty
of setting sun
Vastness
of accepting sea
Power
of healing air
Gratitude
of repose
in Nature's
lap
beautiful
at rest
thankful
stillness
deep.
Lying
vulnerable
Yet
sure of safety.

Today is new day. Fresh in possibilities. An empty canvas inviting the brush. A blank page aching for the pen. A clear mind ready to receive. An open heart ready to experience. Joy.
Stillness. Gratitude.

I would like to begin by thanking everyone who took the time and love to comment on yesterday's post. On the day when stillness was evoked, when everyone was invited to rest, I boiled and churned, because I could not rest. But, thanks to all of you, I am at peace. I let go and let love. Be. I am grateful for all your words of encouragement, of praise and of advice. I absorbed them, and they will grow like a majestic tree of knowledge and guide me through the days ahead. You are all muses of the higher order. Collective beauty and love. :)

I am up early, on my day off. And that's okay. I am thankful for another day, stretching before me, new. I will honor the stillness that I need and the gratitude that I feel.

This is my prayer of gratitude:

Health - May our bodies be restored to health and may healing shower my sisters in this journey.

Love - May boundless love fill our lives and lift us when we are feeling alone, or discouraged.

Creativity - May we be energized by the creative power that flows within us, springing out into expression.

Prosperity - May our homes be warm, our tables full, our needs be met.

Freedom - May we always be blessed with the liberty to pursue our dreams, and our goals.

Peace - May we reside in the safe harbour of tranquility even in the stormiest circumstances.

Travel - May our footsteps guide us to explore new beginnings, new places, new experiences that rejuvenate us and fill us with inspiration.

Pets - May our spirit guides, the tender, feral souls that have chosen us to be in their lives provide us with their boundless wisdom and love.

Music - May it fill our lives, the air we breathe, the heartbeat in our chests, our every pore with joy.

Dance- May our bodies move, like fluid dancers throughout our lives.

Air - May he wrap us in his oxygenated love, and fill our lungs with life.

Earth - May she be fruitful and whole, rich in soil, plenty of bounty, nurturing us.

Water - May she spring eternal, refreshing, restoring, rejuvenating, quenching our thirsts, cleansing our bodies and spirits.

Fire- May he provide us with warmth, with passion, with inspiration, with conviction.

Thank you. :)
