Thank You
“If the only prayer you said in your whole life was, ‘Thank you, that would suffice.” ~Meister Eckhart
He was right, you know, old Meister. And when it comes right down to it, what else could you possibly say?
Are you awake? Does breath flow in and out from your lungs?
When you strip away all your stories and stand, so firmly held by the planet’s spin, and gaze at the infinite sky, are you not aware of the miraculousness of being? Of the magnificent mystery of it all?
Words fail in the face of it. It is too large to comprehend, and yet we know, without a doubt, that we are.
Look! In the midst of a world teetering on madness, a fragile yellow swallowtail feasts on the joepyweed. Let your heart whisper, “Thank you.”
What else could you possibly say?
