Project Description
THANK YOU
There are millions of ways to say
THANK YOU
There are millions of ways to GIVE THANKS
With hugs, with cards, with kisses
With words, with looks, with presents
With small actions that seem pretty insignificant
With just a smile or just a hand
But there are moments in life
When THANK YOU is not enough
Thank you is not even half
Not even a quarter not even 1 %
Of what I try to express
Like thank you for
Walking through life with me
Here on earth
Thank you that you love me
Even tough there is a lot I struggle with
Thank you that you give
So much of your energy to me every single day
Thank you for not running away
Thank you for giving me this feeling at night
That no matter how hard it is it’s actually alright
Thank you for putting up with my crankiness when I am hungry
Thank you for feeding me with an emergency smoothie
Thank you seems so small in comparison to this love
Thank you is actually the most helpless expression I can think of
There is so much more underneath
That I try to communicate
Thank you for being my mother, my father, my mate,
My sister, my brother, my enemy
My my biggest problem, my best remedy
My reason to grow into more of me
There times in life when I get angry
And hazy, limp and lazy, upset with myself
And everyone around
And I feel bound
By all this expectation
Of how life is “supposed to be”
Until I fall and crash and have to accept
Than things turn out differently
To what I have planned
Or what I have wished for
Or what I have dreamed about
Thank you for stirring up at the hidden stuff
That needs to come out
Thank you for upsetting me without even knowing why
Thank you for making me think
Thank you for making me cry
Thank you for uncovering everything
That desperately wants to be revealed
Thank you for showing me everything
that desperately wants to be healed
That is screaming for a way to come to the surface
Thank you for being the catalyst
Thank you for pushing me to the limits
that I could have never explored otherwise
Thank you for making me not only smart but wise
Thank you for making me think higher of myself and my purpose
Thank you for making me sweaty and itchy and nervous
Thank you for being my opponent as well as my playmate
My toughest antagonist
My dearest friend
There is a lot I need to figure out
And there so much I don’t understand
Thank you that I can be at least for now
just a human being
Thank you for remind me
that there is no need for pretending
Thank you for showing me
That we all go through this together
That we all have to face ourselves
Sooner or later
Thank you for teaching me a lesson
in the university of the soul
were the only way to pass the exam
is to be grateful
for everything
and all
