VASTNESS
a quIEt sense of hıgher gratıtude

Eyes shut, focus on your heart,

Think of the years it has provided life,

Feel your gratitude,

Breathe in deeply with that feeling,

Silently say, THANKS.

Feeling that THANKS is for the present of being alive.

Eyes still shut.

A journey begins from the heart to the sky.

Across vast lands, sensing their scale,

Around the world, then continuing upwards.

As you rise, the Earth becomes smaller,

Until it turns into a dot,

Then disappears.

What once felt large,

Now like a dust particle.

Feel the scale of the universe.

Breathe in deeply with that feeling,

Sense the word, MUCH.

Feeling that MUCH represents the scale of the universe.

Take another deep breath,

End with the feeling of THANKS MUCH.

We are all on a floating galaxy,

Within a unique time that will never repeat,

And you are a precious part of the universe.

Remain conscious that all living beings share this existence,and that every journey, in time, comes to its natural end.
