giving is a lesson in learning how to receive (gratitude)
discovering the light
sifting through
hope's rays
the need for the fight
to live
came back, re-entered
my heart
when another chose to give
of
themselves
why I was deserving
mattered not
but it was, rather
what I wrought
a shining new chance
to be a better version
of the person I was
thank you,
dear stranger
I no longer feel
so alone.
gratitude practice
