Today I will dance on the point of awareness
     Setting aside the past with honour and grace
     Releasing its weighty agonies and ecstasies
     Weaving the wisdom of lessons learned into lighter garments

Today I will dance on the point of awareness
     Trusting the future to unfold as it will
     Dismantling the fearful walls of what might be
     Living in joyful anticipation yet fully present in the  moment
    
Today I will dance on the point of awareness
     Senses, this day is yours
     Look, hear, touch, taste, and smell
     Do each with reverence, immediacy, and curiosity
     Mind, you've been working too hard
     You may take the day off

In these small yet potent ways, each moment will be made new
Today I will dance on the point of awareness
