2012
A Meditation for the New Year
May 2012 be a year of faith
in the unfolding of this
precious life I am living,
knowing more & more deeply
the beauty, goodness,
and textured richness
of being in it fully.
May that which keeps me
from entering life
with full presence
fall away
as I open my heart
to the arising of each moment.
