Today was a balmy 55 degree November day. Tomorrow it's coming. Winter. By Thanksgiving Day the high will be 30. Soooooo...
Heavenly father, Mother earth, Brother sun and Sister moon, thank you for the gift of life and thank you for the gift of this day. I also thank you for adversity for it is in the face of adversity that we rise above. I thank you for the gift of plenty as I am well equipped to help others. Finally, thank you for the gift of love, both the verb and the noun, for it is beautiful.
Father, Mother, Brother, Sister - I pray for peace and to be peaceful. I pray to be deserving of your graces.
So there you have it - really, really bad buddhism - but if I've learned anything over the past few months it is that I don't know as much as I used to think. Buddhist tenets speak to me, whereas the concept of God didn't. Now...well now I'm not so certain about God. He hasn't spoken to me. Yet. But his hand, or that of serendipity, has clearly been at work in my life.
Too much to explain. I suggest watching the moving Grand Canyon and learn to be open to miracles.
So there.
