Awake my heart to another day, a day of aspiration and inspiration, a day with disappointments and with sadness, a day with frustration and with learning, a day of joyful laughter and a day of growing hope. Awake, my heart, to another day trusting in the transforming power of love, and when that trust is tested, holding on and holding true, through hatred, through vitriol, through disbelief, through tantrums, and through curses. Awake, my heart, to another day to love generously and courageously my neighbor, the stranger, my friend, my kin, the Holy, and even myself. So much to love, so much to learn! Let me then give thanks for this day and bear a heart of hope on into it! Amen.
