mindfulness in every body
a poem to serve as an outstretched arm, tossing the raft of mindfulness to you
float in the river of your feelings
allowing each one to be felt,
to be known,
to be held
nurture every emotion that arises
as if it is a friend
embracing it
within arms of love.
nourish pleasant sentiments
as if they are your children-
allowing them to grow and evolve
as nature does.
swim in the depths of your feelings
knowing that they cannot drown you
because you are the vast ocean
ride every wave,
mindfulness as your life raft

Religious Freedom Granted in 1978
What traditions are you most thankful for and why? Rupi Kaur's Gratitude Writing Prompts 1. Enormous Gratitude for the return of religious freedom for American Indians in 1978. The same year I got into recovery. That year I could smudge, go into the sweat lodge, attend full-moon ceremony, pipe ceremony, wiping of tears ceremony, and others.
