BEING Tune: Theme from “Black Orpheus” My life is as Vast as the sea No boundaries no Floor beneath me. Yet as I look within No man has greater sin. I am the least of all I daily fall. But it’s then when I Doubt that I can I choose to be nothing For man. To die is my lot I live as if not With Paul I merge with all. I see then as Never before The secrets of heaven my store. With wisdom twice my age My life an open page Though with each insight Gain a deeper pain. Yet I live with the Lord on my side And wild intuition My guide. I’m sent as a sign The bread and the wine My form And virgin born. Then I act seeing Action is vain And accomplishments Never as gain. To only do is less Than forming humanness So mission I must be To set men free. Called to burn as an Undying flame Each word and each Gesture the Name. I must through life-loss An exalted cross My place Reveal his face Then the Lord through My life prays a prayer And my being is Filled being there. I can invent anew what All the saints once knew By being who I am I create man. And it’s no longer I who is seen But the Lord standing There in between. Finished as I die Held there between Sky and sod To save our God. Yes, it's there on the limbs of the worm‑eaten tree where the All and the Nothing can BE.

It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow. Melody Beattie
