Gratitude

What I want is to thank

the void

the universe

the mother

the teacher

the ultimate

for speaking to me in my dreams

for rewarding me even if I fail to notice

for calmly teaching me patience

for guiding me to the lessons I need to learn;

for showing me how to be playful

for leading me in the dance of creation

for showering me in gifts of abundance

and doing so more the more I commit

to learning the art of uncertainty

and softness.

I give thanks in gratitude for all that came before me, all that comes through me and all that shall follow, existing in parallel, now.
