Contentment

Every moment is fulfilling, Every day is learning.
This night is silent, I am aware of my heart beating.
I can sleep peacefully now,
As this is the Life I have been dreaming.

Today I harmed no one, and told no lies,
I accepted this day with contentment,
and stayed away from all vice.

Today I spread warmth, Peace and Compassion,
and listened carefully to every companion.
I shared with them their sorrows and joys,
And made every meeting a wonderful Celebration.

Within myself, I stayed aware and balanced,
Remained with Anicca and practiced diligence.
I worked with detachment for my mind and body,
Just knowing the breath, being gentle and patient.

And tonight when I go to bed, I spread Metta for all beings,
The mind is silent, I am aware of my heart beating.
I can sleep peacefully now,
As this is the Life I have been dreaming.
