Be aware and see the whole beauty of existence.

A cup of tea declares that the night is over, Wake up!
Be aware and see the whole beauty of existence.
The universe has allowed you one day more –
You cannot demand, it is a gift.
One day the sun will rise and the roses will blossom but you will not be there to celebrate this new morning.
And there is no way to complain, it is absolutely in the hands of the cosmos.
But we have not paid our gratitude even for our life.
Do you think there can be anything more precious than life, than consciousness?
And existence gives it to you without asking any payment in return.
At least you can be thankful.
This thankfulness is the only authentic prayer;
All other prayers are childish, they are nothing but hidden demands.
