Humble Prayers

It is a fine thing to do daily before the sun comes up and the crowds pour across the mental horizon. Done once and solid, it anchors the day to bountiful purpose, focusing on the truth of matters and the importance of any act or thought. Forgotten and the world spins about in want of direction, reeling off course into the starry night. That is why I ask the daily blessing and give thanks before the sun comes up. Reminding ourselves that we are smaller than the waves and equal to the stones gives the day some sense.
