Morning Invocation

Today, I believe in another way.

Today, I believe in another way.

I see my society, the cultures I’m a part of, and I hold space in my own psyche, in my own imagination, in my own dreaming, for another way of life.

I hold those dreams and prayers and visions close.

I believe it is possible to live in a world where people are peaceful, where all people’s are honored.

I hold this vision, and I watch myself as I slip into fatalistic thought. As I consider a future on this planet that is grim, I stop, and I consider another way.

I hold the vision in my heart that we can live in a planet that is loving. That we can heal and repair, for the sake of all generations to come.

Today, even when people around me talk about the potentials of the unknown, how difficult things are on this planet, I feel all of that, I do not skip over it, and yet, I still hold the vision for another way.

The possibility for a planet where all humans are honored, where all bodies are honored, where nature is honored.

I stand for this deeply in the core of my being, and I do not let this vision go.

Today, I believe in another way.
