Bearing Gifts

You are gift-wrapped
Unwrap yourself now.
Let your gifts
spill to the floor
and all over the world.

Watch how your kindness
transforms this cruel world.
See how your love heals fear.
Notice how your courage
inspires us all.

Let your smile release
this old sad world.
Give everyone you meet
the star in your eye.
Shine your light.
Open your heart.

Notice how your peace of mind
makes any war more meaningless
and harder to fight.

Your happiness is a gift.
It attracts angels from afar.
Your smile is like champagne.
Your laughter is like love.
Your healing inspires us.
Your presence is a miracle.
Unwrap yourself now.

If you have ever wondered who you are and why you are here then give yourself away to the world around you. The answer is in the giving.

May you always remember that you came bearing gifts.
