Prayers from Goldmine...

I got my Goldmine prayer book this past weekend, and am awed at some of the imagery within it. It's a pretty wonderful thing.

I wrote this prayer, which is more like a poem, or perhaps it is just a prayer of thanks for the experience:

I entered in to this heaven
In pain, hurting, broken.
I lay my burdens down;
I leave the world behind.
I am no longer alone.
In being vulnerable to those around me
I have grown strong
In leaping into the abyss
I have found a community to support me.
I give thanks to the universe
To the infinitely large and infinitely small universe
To the universe of us
And to the universe of me
For this space
For this blessing
For this healing
For this love.

Funniest prayer:

Swimming in the Mantra Rays
In the oceans
Can be calming
Think of the Mantra Ray
When you are so tired
That many dumb things
Are super Funny

Best line:

Love is the flame of my everyday chalice.

Best advice:

Don't confuse the edge of your rut with the horizon.
