Gratitude

When I am depleted, and when there is nothing more to do,

I allow myself to embrace the stillness that is always present.

This is Peace.

The silence speaks. The silence replenishes.

I close my eyes and take a breath: I am here right now.

In the silence, I hear my voice, always present.

I take another breath, another step, and create the next moment with gratitude

Judgment

Thank you for being my mirror.

I judged you. I tried to make you wrong so that I could be right

My ego needs to be right because it does not know faith

It cannot know faith because its job is to keep me separate

This created distance

Distance between you and me on the outside

Distance between me and God on the inside

Judgments keep me out of my own heart

My home

The judgments that I have are not about you

They are my issues

My projections

I recognize this and take responsibility for them

This is a gift. You are a gift.

You have shown me what I am still unwilling to love

Connection or separation?

Love or Fear?

Through your reflection, I see a choice.

Thank you for being my mirror.
