We are blessed

               Life's best IS ours, because we are alive

               we ARE blessed, been given form and shape

               being conscious about our existence

               are able to distinguish, to make decisions



               We are capable to ask, to query ourselves

               to look behind the vale, the traps of form

               finding the essential in all around us and within

               we are the creators of our reality



               Dreamer, sleeper, victims of circumstances

               cought in self-sufficient dullness of matter

               suffering and longing to get out of limitations

               walking blind through fog and mist of ignorance



               Our wishes and illusions keep us going

               fighting to reach imaginary common goals

               blind for the beauty beside our individual path

               blinker do not allow blessings to be received



               We own the gift to be aware, being blessed - alive

               don't let us waste too much of our precious presence

               by turning around our self-sufficient personality

               the call from within is getting stronger - let's listen to it!



               There are signs and voices all around remembering us

               that our existence contains all answers within itself

               let's stop to fill up void with endless chattering

               being busy to cover limbo of loneliness and longing



               We own the blessed gift of individual existence

               let's dare to be aware of its pure and solemn form

               that will allow to see all the rest more objective

               and recognise that we all are   l o v e d   since ever
