Life Is A Prayer

Some women know they pray. Other women think they don't because they are not down on their knees morning and night. Whether we realise it or not, with every breath, with every heart beat, women pray. We pray with desire, longing, hunger, thirst, signs, remorse and regret. We pray with disappointment, discouragement, despair, disbelief. We pray with anger, rage, jealousy, envy. We pray with pleasure, contentment, happiness, exultation, joy. We pray when we comfort, cheer, console. We pray when we laugh. We pray when we cry. We pray when we work and play. We pray when we make love and make a meal. We pray when we create and admire creation. One way or another, we pray. Everyday life is the prayer. How we conduct it, celebrate it, consecrate it. It's just that some prayer are better than others. Conscious prayers are the best.
