what i need to share...
my heart is the home of a banquet, and so i sing a song of thanks for all the gifts, talents, blessings and treasures that fill my life to the fullest.
my life is a feast that overflows with the delights of your presence.
in thanksgiving, i rejoice in that river of gifts that flows from taste smell touch and sight.
may my life be an endless song of gratitude.
may this my life song be a magnet that draws me ever closer to you, o god, who has whispered in the silent spaces of my heart words that speak the gift of gifts: "you are my beloved"
amen
these words and thoughts really resound with me, and i wish people really could understand what true thanks comes from. true thanks comes from and is the result of sacrifice... god's sacrifice, your parent's sacrifice, your spouse's sacrifice, your co-workers' sacrifice... please understand, i'm just one to speak the unspoken thoughts of the masses. call me rude, call me a jerk, call me insensitive, but the silence is deafening at times... can we do any of this without the masses? can we do anything alone? can we misrepresent ourselves as 'islands'? that whole thought makes me cringe in fear, and despair, but i must add that i see an amazing turn of events usually daily...
the sun is coming up soon... can you please join me in the fact that the sun is one of the most amazing things... please find me gazing at the sunrise any day, every day...
be well, live long and prosper,
gobble gobble...
