A PRAYER

Every morning I will wake up in my bed and mutter a prayer. A prayer that will mainly revolve around a day filled with hope, grace and mercy as well. Every night I will go to bed and mutter a prayer. A prayer that will mainly revolve around thanks, appreciation and forgiveness. Recently, there have been many things happening and, in life, some things don't always go as planned. 
However, we grow. We learn that setbacks are a process of self-betterment and that we can always live a life full of excitement if we do not automatically anchor ourselves with the down parts in life.
We can always try to find something new to do. Pick up a hobby. Pick up a book. Get lost in imagination and creativity. The possibilities to give your life a positive boost are endless. You can always sit by the window and look at the sun rays as they cast shadows of people, cars and trees. You can sit, wrapped in a warm sweater, with a cup of hot cocoa and read a book by the glass petition that separates you from the trickling 'silver snakes' outside and its fellow water droplets dancing in the wind. You can try to find beauty in everything. Sit back enjoy the mellow and chill morning in the weekends. Become more appreciative over the simplest things. Make yourself breakfast. Pancakes and omelette sounds perfect. Drizzle those pancakes with honey :)
So that is why I start a prayer every morning and night. Keeps me sane and holds my spirituality firm. Gets me going for the day and probably forget the bad that happened. What would you do for escapism? What would you do for positivity?  What would you do to live?
