Tea

With a steaming bowl of green tea I wait for the sun to peek it's head over the tree that is between me and east.
It will soon lose it's leaves, then I won't have to wait so long.
It's the most beautiful day on God's earth.
I give thanks for this day, also for the peace, quiet and birdsong of this early morning.
Thank you that I have everything that I need, also that I am filled with happiness, inner peace and joy.
Thank you that my heart is bursting with love for this magnificent planet that I'm so lucky to be alive on.
And thank you for the potential within me to change the world to a better place, even if it's only by smile to a stranger at a time.
