For peace
For creativity
For balance
And emotional stability

I've been struggling too much for too long
I'm done
Done believing I am not enough
That something is missing

I've learned all the lessons
And forgotten every one
I've been helped
And convinced myself I'm alone

From today on I pray to remember
The lessons I've learned when I need them
From today I pray to remember
To pray for guidance when I need it

Ask with faith and you shall receive
But only if you ask
You already have everything you need
Unless you believe the voice of doubt

The nature of existence is flow and change
Adaptation, improvisation, be present, aware, awake
Don't give up but don't try too hard
Allow the river to carry you, be light, be water

This is how it is and and how it has always been
But with unexpected changing of the wind
We often fear the worst and hell becomes our experience
Blinding ourselves to the new good that is
And from it creating our own torment
Unwilling to let go, move on, open up again
To the magic of existence
The many faces of the universe's benevolence
