Infinitely Grateful

Infinitely grateful:

infinitely grateful, and by this it's a regression of cause and continuous moment of effect, it's seeing how we've gained support for simply being what we are right now - from the first instance of creation. This is a gratefulness of the very small, of cells providing structure to the body and the molecules that aid in their production. Smaller still are atoms as basis for our form, and even they are found as particles sweeping through vast emptiness to manifest the world. 

it all comes from nothing. 

so gratefulness isn't the appreciation of things alone, of objects or people that we cherish - it's much deeper than appearance, being founded by an emptiness that allows all things to be. We exist from infinite cause, hearts beating due to cooperation of cells, energy by molecules, and bodies by attraction of particles that give rise to form. We are because everything else is too. To take one breath is to be grateful for the sky and every tree that functions for the purity of air. We don't breathe alone, exchanging energy is vital to the world and we belong fully to this system. Our thankfulness is expressed as breath and heartbeat, energy shared, all quietly communicated through the essence of our being. 

we constantly tell the world that we are grateful. 

and so our ritual is only one of acknowledgement, for to even whisper the words thank you is to involve the cooperation of infinite cause, a vibration that echoes through existence, continuous in its effect. To be alive is to be grateful and we demonstrate by breath in exhale to the sky, with each heartbeat that whispers back to cells in reply to what they've given. 

we give thanks by simply being. 

and infinitely grateful,

we exist.
