gratitude
this wonderful life isn’t an accident; it’s quite intentional.
not on the part of some God,
but on the part of many here. with me. now.
doing. giving. being. so many amazing things.
and sharing it all, selflessly. sleeplessly. with belief.
lately, and especially for some reason today this weighed heavily on me,
i have been noting that i don’t thank the people who make it so wonderful nearly enough.
i at least always try to say thank you
whenever something has been offered to me,
or even if not offered directly,
if it was offered to the universe,
and it touched me with everyone.
sometimes i forget to say thank you.
but even when i do, i have recently been feeling like it’s not enough.
that what’s being given to me is so much more than i give.
so while i am filled up with all this gratitude,
at the same time there is guilt.
guilt that i am not giving back enough,
that the teeter totter isn’t balanced
and soon you’ll be tired of being the heavy one, sitting on the ground
while i fly.
