Love the Here, Embrace the Now

this is it

today is the day

if not now, when?

this is awareness

every moment is a blessing

every breath is a gift

pain is a lesson

strife is a journey

to joy

to appreciation

be grateful for this road

for it has made us who we are

be thankful for this existence

for not all have been able to have it

take the chance

climb til it hurts

push til it burns

love with all you are

live in every single realm

of this world

today we celebrate

every cloud

every teardrop

every smile and frown 

broken heart and healed soul

for every single day

every moment

is a blessing

every last breath is a bountiful gift
