If I Should Never Pass This Way Again

If I should never pass this way again,

Let me bask in the beauty of the moment.

Let me find joy in a glimmer of hope signaled by a flower in the rockies.

If I should never pass this way again,

Let me recognize the power of a single pebble and of the water flowing in a creek.

If I should never pass this way again,

Let me smile at fellow journeymen and welcome the quick bond of discovery.

Let me find passion in all I see, for passion created it all

Let me think broadly

Let me see myself bigger

Let me love wider

Let me walk slower

And breathe deeper

For if I never pass this way again,

I'll have been made better for the way ahead.
