My Lord, supreme being of this universe,
let my lips sing the praise of the goodness surrounding me
not affected by the evil that is so rampant,
let my heart glow with the love for them who show affection for me,
and acceptance for others who do not.
Give me the strength to continue that which I do best,
that I may add an iota to the transformation of this planet,
let me have the spark to ignite others in joining me,
the wisdom to choose the causes that I should support,
that I may join others in the effort to make this earth a better place
to live,
my grain of sand being one in the new edifice,
that I could say at the end of the day
that I was all that I could be for my dear ones,
for others not as fortunate as I have been,
and for this planet,
being here for much more than just myself,
even when it was not always easy.
