The gift of this day

reading in the quiet of predawn 
leads to reflection and contemplation 
…the gift of this day

our soul needs these rituals 
as we offer our limitations and gifts
…the gift of this day

in these sacred moments we discover 
in the ground of our very being we are love
…the gift of this day

    Inspiring words and another great journaling/pen photo to accompany. I keep trying to acknowledge some of those little rituals that bring comfort. Something we can never get too much of I think!

      Absolutely, we need to acknowledge them. I didn’t acknowledge them when I was younger as I seemed to be always looking for the next thing in life, rather than staying present with the now moment. I think I’m getting better.
