“Gratitude”- feel the abundance!
"All that we behold is full of blessings"
---- William Wordsworth
Cultivating the culture of gratitude develops a sense of
contentment.
a. Have you felt happy while expressing or receiving gratitude?
b. When was the last time you felt a deep sense of gratitude?
c. Do you feel grateful for what you have been given?
d. Do you appreciate yourself?
Let’s write about that moment when you could or couldn’t express
gratitude!
the thief left it behind
the moon
at the window
------ Ryokan
Here's ending this month's last post with these beautiful lines:
“Let gratitude be the pillow upon which you kneel to say your nightly prayer
and let faith be the bridge you build to overcome evil and welcome good”
---- Maya Angelou

stupid moon stole my prayer for tomorrow cached emptiness
hand held
she crossed the bridge
a lone shadow across
Even when I lost her in physical form, I find her in me, in my actions, and in people whose life her kind soul touched.
I am grateful that I find peace in her memories, smiling through roughest seasons of life...
grateful that I feel her presence as my guardian angel at every crossroad in my life...
grateful that her words as well as actions have always been about kindness, courage, and love...
grateful that that wonderful, kind, giving soul was my mom...
I could write for my entire life and still wouldn't be enough to express how grateful I am to be born as her daughter, her bahadur baccha…
