(M.P. note: For a wisdom circle last year on spirituality, I decided
to put to paper a version of my own spontaneous personal prayer. I often recite
it to myself while on the LifeCycle getting my cardio exercise. Who says you can
only do one thing at a time? I have found exercise and prayer to be as compatibly
and rich as sex and prayer. Who ever would have guessed?)
I am the water. I am the wave. I am always part of the whole,
and I am a manifestation of that same whole. Through the unique ways I bring my
energy and light into the world, I contribute to and honor the whole. I pray that
I remember that my differences, my unique qualities, are my gifts, even my reason
for being in this larger process of evolution.
In my own unique wave manifestation, I live in a vertical reality
connecting the energy of mother earth to father sky. From the earth's perspective,
I live in the sky. From this lofty and humble place of knowing, I invite in the
guiding light of all the spirits whom I've loved and been loved by, my ancestors,
those dear ones who have passed before me, and the Great Spirit of which I am
a part. I ask these spirit guides to light my way bringing grace, synchronicity
and serendipity to my own life journey and the journeys of all my friends and
relations. I pray that our daily challenges are graced with poise and wisdom.
I pray that I can continue to let go of pushing and trying, becoming
more the awake receiver of the inner and outer gifts that come my way; that I
may continue to learn to rest, enjoying the sweetness of moments, being ever more
present for what comes to me.
I pray for my well being and the vitality of all my relations.
May our suffering be minimized and our dreams realized for our own good and the
benefit of the whole.
I am thankful for who I am, where I am, and the lessons of this
life. It is with humble gratitude that I say Thank You, Thank You, Great
Spirit for the awareness, understanding and love I bring to this very moment.
Thank you for showing me who I am. Thank You! Thank You!
