Below is a prayer that really resonates with me....hope you like it too!!!


Buddhist Prayer

Let all things be healthy.
Let all things be peaceful.
Be sure to count your blessings at least once a day.

Forgive those who have hurt you,
and those who have offended you,

But forgive yourself for what you have done,
And let go of what you have failed to do.

That which is done there's no need to speak of,
That which is past there's no need to blame.

Have self-control, self-knowledge, self-respect,
The courage to dare.
Be tranquil, the light of intelligence will shine.

Strive to make the spot where you stand beautiful.
Then beauty and harmony will follow you
In all your ways and through all your days.

Amen!
