What makes for a great morning?

A suggested daily recitation

We wake, and refresh ourselves.We center ourselves with deep breaths, with calmness,with solidity in being in our bodies,in the remembrance of our strengths.

I look forward — to the challenges ahead for which I have been preparing myself.I look forward — to being useful and helpful to my family, my friends, my community and our earth.

I am grateful for all that I have received from my loved ones, from my community, from the earth and from the work and effort that I have done.

I welcome the chance to learn and improve.I am positive and proactive.I give respect, and I expect respect.I am an independent thinker.I use reason and science to see and understand more clearly.I use humanism to guide my actions and my decisions.I have reverence for all life. I am an earthling.

I am grateful for the food that we have prepared. It nourishes me and gives me energy.I know there are many who do not have this. I am aware and will do what I can to help them.

I find strength and support in this family who loves me, and who wishes the best for me.I wish the best for them, and will give them my strength and support through my positive, loving actions.

I welcome the day.I am ready.
