In the midst of any change
when balance is threatened,
gratitude steadies our feet,
strengthens our hearts, and
slows sudden runaway urges.
In the midst of any loss
when balance is threatened
gratitude reaches back to find
joyful memories and sunshine
easing heart pangs and twinges.
In the midst of the sunshine of joy
when balance seems absolute
gratitude is a reminder that
humility steadies and slows
our fascination with flying.
"That’s what I learned. I learned I couldn’t shed light
on love other than to feel its comings and goings and be grateful.”
~ Diane Keaton, Then Again
