Gratitude 05 … Oneness
Today I am grateful for ONENESS …
*I am grateful for the ONENESS that has me remembering my interconnected kinship with everything around me, even while feeling independently separate from it all; the innate Understanding that life is not happening to me as much as it is happening with me.
*I am grateful for the ONENESS that has my prayerful gaze looking inward to find God resting peacefully there, even while I am tempted to look solely upward to the heavens for Him (or Her — or It); the innate Knowing that my very own conscience is the stuff of that Source.
*I am grateful for the ONENESS that has me caring for everyone who has ever harmed, abandoned or betrayed me; knowing that I would & will still gladly give my own Happiness & Contentment to them all, even as I remember that their own joys and successes are mine as well.
*I am grateful for the ONENESS that has me allReady aware of all the Truth & Wisdom there is to be known, even though I often still sit stifled by moments of confusion and indecisiveness; the innate Comprehension that it is actually these times of doubt that emPower all my subsequent decisions to “Do Good Anyway”.
*I am grateful for the ONENESS that has me cherishing my Solitude — that has me reveling in my gentle partnerships with both the Universe (a.k.a. “God”) and mySelf (a.k.a. my “Soul)”; that has me doing so even when sometimes feeling lonely and desiring the company of others.
*I am grateful for the ONENESS that has me realizing that, simply by choosing to wake and set forth into the day intending to be a Force for Good, I have allReady fulfilled that day’s primary Purpose; that has me doing so even when I am doubtful of my ability to “be good enough” or “fulfill my Destiny”.
*I am grateful for the ONENESS that knows that I allWays have everything I truly need — both what I require to survive, and what I need in order to feel true Happiness; that has me Knowing so even when I am hungry or afraid or tired or mad or sad.
*And finally, I am grateful for the ONENESS that simply IS; the ONENESS that allWays was – and the ONENESS that ever will be.
And so it is that I climb to my proverbial mountaintop, take a deep breath filled with profound reverence, and let loose with a long & loud –
Thank Youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
