The World is alive with Light and I am THANKFUL! Joyful, even, as Beauty does that — brings JOY with an intensity that almost hurts. And the world of man-made things pales in comparison. Funny, isn’t it, God. I mean You know I am a materialist in that I love the Material World. My iPod is charging to my right and an anthurium with new leaves and two flowers sits in a pot to my left. And I trudged around most of yesterday LOOKING for stuff to give.
But all of it piled up together is no match for the simple joys of bright blue skies and sunlight coming up from behind Koko Crater. You know, God, I see it all as a GIFT from Your Hand. And I see Your Hand as Loving — and Loving in a PERSONAL WAY. This brings me more JOY even than the LIGHT!
And I wish/pray for all of us to LOVE YOU and then TURN AND LOVE OUR NEIGHBOR AS WE LOVE OURSELVES. And understand that in this small blue dot we are ALL neighbors.

And, yes, God, we could begin with me. Please, help — please pour out even more love — and give us hearts turned right side up so we can received all that You give. All Your Love and Compassion and Interest in each and every one of us — humans — and our extended family of creation. Please.
