to learn something new,

find an ample measure of my own joy.

Adding one to my count of days, or postponing
a feared death by another day do not inspire me.

bring joy into someone's life,
feel the wind newly on my skin,
touch a new fear, a new anger,
and with focused intent and good fortune,
find an ample measure of my own joy.

be found in noise and restlessness.

We need silence to be able to touch souls.

Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life.
It turns what we have into enough, and more.
It turns denial into acceptance,

a house into a home, a stranger into a friend.
Gratitude makes sense of our past,
brings peace for today,
and creates a vision for tomorrow.
