my
gratitude
waters me,
quenches
my thirst
is the antidote
to lack
deprivation
neediness
blind to what i am,
in denial of what is,
a graveyard
haunts me
right where
life is lush
and blooming
violets
lilies of the valley
petunias
heavy in the air
wash my face
meet me
greet me
with every breath
yet the ungrateful
lay parched on the desert floor
watching strangers
pass them by,
hoarding every last drop
of their precious water
for themselves
it is not so, dear one,
only the ungrateful
could hallucinate so
the moment
i give thanks
is everything
every where
returned to me,
gifts
given
opening
and opening
and opening
without my thanks,
there is nothing
to appreciate

About Me
- Joy Schultz
- I have been a student of A Course in Miracles since 1986. It has helped me tremendously to be a happier person by helping me change my perception of everything. I have found writing to be very helpful in the process of practicing, experiencing, and living the ideas in the Course. In 2006 I started sharing inspiration from the Course with a friend. Now it is a joy to share it with everyone. In 2009, The Work of Byron Katie found me at a woman's group. The Work is a way to identify and question your stressfuI beliefs. I dove right in and in April 2013 became a Certified Facilitator of The Work of Byron Katie. I work with people privately and offer online classes. Please visit www.joyofthework.com for more information. I also still occasionally lead the 11am Sunday Gathering at the Rocky Mountain Miracles Center in Denver.
