May I live with HUMILITY – “bending down as low as a blade of grass” in awe of this great mystery, INTEGRITY – living life in alignment with my deepest self, whether someone is looking or not, COURAGE AND WILLINGNESS – to stop, breathe and feel what’s on the inside, PRESENCE – relinquishing the thinking mind and silently meeting this moment, SOBRIETY – from all my addictions, there is no deepening without it, RESPONSIBILITY – realizing that I have created every facet of my experience, there is no one to blame, only opportunities to learn and grow, and ACCEPTANCE – of myself and others and for when I fail, SURRENDER – sometimes the best action is to just let go and fall ever more deeply into self, so many more prayers, especially LOVE… branden

We are creation beings and in every moment, we have a choice, love or fear. BC
Oh Beloved, take me. Liberate my soul.
Fill me with your love and release me from the two worlds.
If I set my heart on anything but you let fire burn me from inside.
Oh Beloved, take away what I want.
Take away what I do. Take away what I need.
Take away everything that takes me from you.
Rumi
