I have gratitude for EVERYTHING
that has ever occurred to bring me to this moment.

the moments of peace and the flashes of anger,
the compassion and the indifference,

I accept gratefully the entirety of my past and my present life.

cellularly, like a laborious mosaic.

In many ways, it is easier to be a good giver than a good receiver.
The giver chooses the gift and the timing.
More important, societal and religious traditions
tend to elevate the status of giver and lower the status of receiver.
When the Bible (Acts 20:32-35) speaks of it being
more blessed to give than to receive,
I believe that a better translation might be
"take" rather than "receive," as the context
of that passage is "coveting."
Certainly there is nothing blessed about coveting,
stealing, begging, or demanding,
however the skill of graciously receiving a freely offered gift
is another matter entirely.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
Ask and you shall receive, that your joy may be full.
- John 16:24

- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
It is more agreeable to have the power to give than to receive.
- Winston Churchill
For every benefit you receive a tax is levied.
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
The Prayer of St. Francis of Assisi
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace,
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master,
grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand;
to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive;
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.

this prayer first appeared (written in French) in 1912

Love one another but make not a bond of love.
Let it rather be a moving sea

It is our Light, not our Darkness, that most frightens us.

so I may as well enjoy it"
kind of holding-on.
