Celebrate
I celebrate the sky and the sun and the moon.
I celebrate the grass and the flowers in bloom.
I celebrate the light and the dark on the earth.
I celebrate death and a baby’s new birth.
I celebrate love in all of its forms.
I celebrate lifestyles outside of the norm.
I celebrate kindness, compassion and generosity.
I celebrate humanity, unity and reciprocity.
I celebrate animals and birds and fish.
I celebrate oceans and wet morning mist.
I celebrate dogs and cats who keep us Zen.
I celebrate here and gone, family and friends.
I celebrate angels and spiritual masters.
I celebrate guides who evolve us faster.
I celebrate color and beauty and style.
I celebrate art that makes the heart smile.
I celebrate parents, teachers and education.
I celebrate books, music and innovation.
I celebrate houses and buildings - small and tall.
I celebrate the pyramids and the mighty Great Wall.
I celebrate diversity and difference of opinion.
I celebrate all races, genders and religions.
I celebrate adults and children and teens.
I celebrate elders who deserve to be seen.
I celebrate freedom to speak and courage to create.
I celebrate control of my body and choice of my mate.
I celebrate every woman and divine femininity.
I celebrate human dignity and endless possibilities.
