You left the light on.
 The water is still dripping.
 Are you going to throw that away?
 How often do we forget
 to be mindful
 about our environment
 and our resources.
I am one who gets distracted
 and forgets to shut the light off
 I leave the water running
 from time to time.
 I do not always treat the environment
 with kindness, dignity, and respect.
Being mindful means
 I have to be present
 when eating and
 experience the aroma, 
 textures,
 appearance
 and taste
 of my food.
 It means I am mindful 
 of my utilities and when
 and why I am using them
 it means I honor that which 
 is in my home and
 regift it when I no longer
 appreciate its value
Being mindful brings me
 closer to a place of that 
 amazing peace, 
 because I am seeing and 
 honoring the Divine in all.
Because of this,
 I am going to work on 
 being mindful 
 and honoring all.
