When I see time moving ever forward…
and each day I grow a little oder than the day before…
I am grateful I have a way of looking back…
grateful knowing that’s what memories are for.
Today I’m grateful for my ability to imagine…
When I’m alone or in the middle of a crowd
I can image whales that fly
Trees that talk
And castles in the clouds.
Yes, sometimes I wonder where I might be emotionally
If I didn’t have my imagination
standing in the shadows
sometimes following and sometimes guiding me
I’d like to take moment
before this new day starts…
to be grateful for everyone
who has an open heart…
Again I turn to the Native Nations
for their wisdom once again applies….
our gratitude can be as deep as the ocean…
if our hearts are as open as the sky.
Today I’m grateful for knowing how every form of nature…every life
from the moment of their creation…the moment of their birth
is vital to each others survival…and the balance of the Earth.
