The blessings of today will be many. Rise and greet them with open eyes and an open heart.

Be thankful. Be at peace. In this day too, gifts.

“When you were standing in the wake of devastation
when you were waiting on the edge of the unknown
with the cataclysm raining down, insides crying save me now
you were there and possibly alone.

Do you feel cold and lost in desperation
you build up all the failiures all you’ve known remember all the sadness and frustration and let it go, let it go.

And in the burst of light that blinded every angel as if the sky had blown the heavens into stars you felt the gravity of temper grace falling into empty space
no one there to catch you in their arms

Do you feel cold and lost in desperation
you build up all the failiures all you’ve known remember all the sadness and frustration and let it go, let it go.”

- Linkin Park “Iridescent”
