Extraordinary and remarkable
Lord of the Heavens,
Earth and Universe
I praise You with all of my being
I thank You for the choices
I can make, and my free will
of action and thought
Despite the hindrances
in an imperfect world
There is much joy to have
There is much beauty
in Your creation
I stand in nature, silent
and marvel at the details
The laughter I have
is rewarding and healing
I do not wish to take life
too seriously
I am grateful that
love triumphs over bitterness
and that a positive perspective
brings with it a durable calm
