Prayer does not require a religion or faith.

It require a desire to reach beyond yourself and acknowledge
other forces in your surroundings that influence you.

Prayer is a respectful commune with all things meaningful and powerful,
whether in our perception, our stories or our reality.


Prayer is a respect for the gods, God, the elements of nature, the known and/or the unknown.

Prayer is a meditation and a cultivation of energy through thought and reflection, from which we synchronize our being with the world that surrounds us.

Prayer does not demand a religion or faith.

It demands humility, openness and a willingness to acknowledge all things within and beyond us (the self), known and unknown.

amen.
