My New Year Wish  

We Pray Lord, for.…..

the hope of someday blooming again,
so we can envision a new dream.

the courage and fortitude to attempt,
what we dared to dream.

to trust ourselves, so what we dream,
will one day become our reality.

to pause, reflect, and absorb the wisdom,
we’ve learned from past lessons.

to be brave in starting our new direction,
so we gain insight to the journey thus far.

to be more forgiving, as we have been forgiven,
for all our many past transgressions.

to respond truthfully to the heart of the soul,
in able to better understand our purpose.

to slow the pace and enjoy each moment,
so our memories will be more vibrant.

to walk without fear, knowing He has a plan,
if only we heed and listen.

to stay calmer, having peace of mind,
while healing from pain and loss.

to remember and honor the people in our past,
for they helped shape our future.

to look forward with dignity and grace,
so we don’t stumble looking back.

to give love more abundantly, understanding
love carried us when we couldn't walk.

to move between, what's behind and what's before,
with serenity, peace, and comfort.

and to clear the fog, allowing a sharp pristine view,
forever shining with grace, beauty, and love….
In memory of my fiancé, B.A.N. and my fur friend, Wyatt. May they shine high on that mountain.
