In Much Gratitude

Moments
Milliseconds of life
Slipping through my fingers constantly
May I not squander them recklessly
Living in the past or the distant future
In worry
In pain
In angst
May I look to the moment in my palms
The only one that I can do anything about
This magical ball of vibrant energy
That is mine
For the taking
For the making
For the living
For being
My hands meeting in thanks
Gratitude in every breath
Life inhaled
Consumed
Utilized
Improved
And exhaled
In service
To the world
To my purpose
To myself
Blessed beyond measure
In this millisecond of existence
