As I rise this morning,
I intentionally open my awareness through my heart:
This life is a gift.
I have been gifted my breath,
and so I begin my day giving back my pranic breath,
emanating gratitude from deep within my beautiful heart.
This life is a gift.
I rub the sleep out of my eyes and I stretch my body.
How good to have a body!
I hug myself and those who share my home.
This life is a gift and truly is mine to do as I will.
I activate my imagination so that I may connect to my essence within.
I ask myself, what will bring me joy today?
I make a promise to do that very thing.
May I be kind in every interaction with myself and all others.
May my kindness spark others to more fully ignite their light.
How good to greet the day
with excitement and gratitude!
I pray that I will meet each day with incrementally more happiness,
no matter the outer circumstances.
How beautiful to think that I will eventually meet my death,
being the happiest I have ever been.
I Am here!
Awake in this miracle of life.
Joyfully surrendering myself into the pulse of giving and receiving.
And so I rise!
Amen.
