A Jewish Prayer

I stand before you and before my neighbors - pardoning, forgiving, struggling to be open to all who have hurt and angered me. Be this hurt of body or soul, of honor or property, whether they were forced to hurt me or did so willingly, whether by accident or intent, whether by word or deed - I forgive them because we are human.
-Levi Yitchak of Beditschev: Jewish Prayer

Let your eyes blaze with the world you feel,
Let your emotions be ripples in the frozen lake,
Let your ideas be storms in complacent seas.
