Prayer for the day

In the morning I try
to reconcile the worries of
yesterday, today and tomorrow. 

My grip is weakening. 
I pray to God for favors - 
release my unrealistic expectations. 

From the foggy experience - clarity,
the light of dawn,
A voice, vision, thought, from 
The One:
“I did this, you didn't and can't.

Then peace arrives
the sun rises again, I breathe,
feel my body come alive,
the heaviness lifts.

I live here and I needn't be 
the caretaker of the world.
Remember to be thankful
son, brother, husband, father 
and friend.
