not getting what you want is 

a wonderful stroke of luck.”

Self

I thank you for the  wind, 

Rain and cold as well as

Sun heat

Whatever the turnings of 

day and night bring for 

all of our living

I forgive you for not being

Present constantly, consistently, 

Conscientiously to receive the 

Gifts and teachings of our natural 

Worlds 

I commit to be 

More curious

More constant

More consistent

More  conscientious 

More respectful and in

More wonder in our natural worlds
