A Prayer for Every Day
I greet this auspicious day and allow the past to fall away…
Sometimes I fail to live what I know
May I now live in compassionate awareness
Sometimes I judge the actions of others
May I now hear their story and grow my love
Sometimes I fail to care for myself
May I now nurture and value my presence
Sometimes I hide in darkness
May I now feel the warm sun dawn in my heart
Now that I’ve rekindled compassion for myself and others
I aspire to help relieve suffering in the world
—while planting seeds of joy
I greet this auspicious day and allow the past to fall away…
