May I curl up in warmth shared among friends, between strangers, nurtured among neighbors, a sharing economy of care and consideration, welcome and cherishing #morningconsideration #morningprayer #chalicelighting #uu

May I cultivate effervescent delight in each day I meet, an appreciation of being an embodiment of time and sunlight and dreams living fully #morningconsideration #morningprayer #chalicelighting #uu

Wisdom, may we appreciate the transience of moments we might otherwise seek to hoard, to hold frozen and life-less, but instead embrace the living, the moving, the changing #morningconsideration #morningprayer #chalicelighting #uu

Wisdom, may we appreciate the ordinary we encounter every day, the gifts of what we can count on, of persistence, and of presence #morningconsideration #morningprayer #chalicelighting #uu

Beloved, may we embrace gladly and gratefully what we need for rest today and every day #morningconsideration #morningprayer #chalicelighting #uu

May I allow myself space to enjoy life’s sweetnesses like autumn roses, these transient moments of delight, gathered and pressed into my heart for some frostier day #morningconsideration #morningprayer #chalicelighting #uu

In every transformation, may we find opportunities to thrive; in every change, may we make way for building peace and living generously #morningconsideration #morningprayer #chalicelighting #uu

Breathing in, may I settle myself with patience and with gladness for the day ahead, breathing out, offering my love and life to this sacred day #morningconsideration #morningprayer #chalicelighting #uu

May I find an autumn sunbeam to warm my heart and my skin, to nurture good thoughts towards all beings and gratitude for this life #morningconsideration #morningprayer #chalicelighting #uu

Before the tumble and rush of the day, may we gather ourselves with tenderness, with love, with generosity, and kindness, breathe in, breathe out…ready, set, go! #morningconsideration #morningprayer #chalicelighting #uu

Quiet of the Morning, may I reconnect with the peace that is possible, the peace that flows and changes, and the peace that holds me steadfast in lovingkindness each day #morningconsideration #morningprayer #chalicelighting #uu

May we unite in common to address common problems, like creating affordable and livable communities and taking care of elders, children, and vulnerable adults #morningconsideration #morningprayer #chalicelighting #uu

May we gladly tend the daily sacred practices, like laundry and making lunch and sharing the challenges of this day to meet them and address them #morningconsideration #morningprayer #chalicelighting #uu

May we set into motion positive changes in our lives, letting go of harmful attitudes, starting new habits, opening towards beauty and interconnection #morningconsideration #morningprayer #chalicelighting #uu

When the day starts too quickly, may we breathe and slow down. When the day barely crawls along, may we breathe and shake it up into a joyful dance #morningconsideration #morningprayer #chalicelighting #uu

Today, may we have a chance to teach someone else one small thing or skill we know and may we learn at least two from others #morningconsideration #morningprayer #chalicelighting #uu

May we reflect upon our yearnings and attend to the ones that draw us into greater love, into connections that nurture the earth, and to practices that build peace #morningconsideration #morningprayer #chalicelighting #uu

Today, even when we find it difficult, may we practice openness towards someone we do not know, something we have never tried, some change in attitude that draws us to greater understanding #morningconsideration #morningprayer #chalicelighting #uu

May we live with love and tenderness for one another, meeting each other shoulder to shoulder, glad to share this life and this planet in our differences #morningconsideration #morningprayer #chalicelighting #uu

Wonderment and Gratitude suffuse every day as we cultivate hope-filled nows and hope-filled futures where we may nurture peace and thriving in diverse ways for all #morningconsideration #morningprayer #chalicelighting #uu
