Dear God,

Time is passing swiftly.  August is half over.  Next month on my birthday I turn 79. I remember my beloved grandmother at this age.  When did I suddenly become my grandmother's age?

There is a lesson in every-day living.  As I write today, I am reminded never to take time for granted.  Every day is full of gifts, wonderings and inspirations.  Often, I busy myself so much that I miss lesson one and two.  Then the day is over, lost to me because I gave it away with too many things.  I tell myself today will be different.

But right now in this very moment I am pausing, pausing, pausing to take stock in the breath I am breathing, the vision that is all around me, the quiet I can hear and the blessing this moment is.  It will quickly slip by but right now I am taking it all in, not for a moment taking it for granted.

Thank you

for this 

holy moment,

Loving Father.

Thank you

for giving it

to me.

May I

always recognize

each moment

as holy 

and sacred.

Love, Andrea
