Celebrating "Life" with Dad and Mom
While  falling asleep in a cold winter's night, in my parents home in Eagle Rock California. Thinking of  Dad, Mom and the great significance, that their  loving care and guidance, had always meant to me, a multitude of beautiful images invaded my mind, impelling me to sit down to write.  And without meaning to, leave as witness on the white sheets of paper and black ink, a written expression of my "Reflections", and 'Sentiments of Love and Gratitude', for 'everything I had to that very moment received, and would continue to harvest, during the course of my 
fortunate existance.

Roxanna Bonilla-Giannini ® 

I Give Thanks for Our "God" and Our "Holly Mother Mary" here on earth, my dearest Mama and my loving Papa.  
For Hope, Humility and Victory

 For my grandparents, my loved ones and for the laughter and the tears that together we have shared.

  I Give Thanks for the abundance of love I have received and I have given; the sweetness that life has gifted me with, and the sad moments that have made me 'more human'; for having kept within my heart the capacity received at birth by every human soul, to love deeply, intensely and unconditionally;
 the joy to be able to freely share and exchange with my fellow men and women, unselfishly, without borders, created interests, labels or prejudice: true afections, complicity, 
knowledge and mutual respect.
 
 I Give Thanks for the privilege within my capacities, to serve, protect and be useful to any living creature; for never having harbor rancour in my soul, or known the feeling of hate; for my teachers, who are as diverse as the colors of the rainbow; the people that have given me the gift of a smile, a good advise or a kind hand; and for the others, that perhaps without meaning to, have striked me, and by doing so, have also inspired me, to better understand, become more compationate, tolerant and a better person. 
 
I Give Thanks for life, for the magic splendor in'Mother Nature'; t
he beautiful, wild little flowers that generously, and without asking for anything in return, give their beauty, color and humble fragrance to my path; for the amazing and diverse wonders in the beauty of  'The Animal Kingdom', it's powerful animals; the many defenseless little creatures, and the multicolored little birds, that lull me with their singing.

I Give Thanks for the beautiful and glorious rainbow; the wind that while softly weaving my hair, also ever so gently caresses my cheeks; the blue sky that gives me refuge; the sun that bathes me in gold and warmth every morning; the stars that illuminate my path, and the moon that covers me with it's silver cloak.  I give thanks for the immense ocean that inflames me, and the rain, that pure and crystal-like kisses my body, leaving my skin soft, and sweetly scented.  

I Give Thanks for the splendor and darkness in our human condition, which not unlike 'Mother Nature Herself', is beautiful, dangerous, capricious and generous, diverse, colorful and unpredictable.   
I give thanks for being part of 'our unique and privileged human race';  for the wealth in the diverse cultures and customs of 'our people'; who by allowing me to learn, share, and be part of their hopes, idiosyncrasies, joys, sorrows, art, language and music, from day to day unmeasurably 
enrich my life, and fill with joy my existence.   

I  Give Thanks, for having received at birth, like all my 'brothers and sisters' in this world, "The Divine Breath of Life".   For the loving and wise guidance Mom and Dad gave to each and every one of my steps, on my journey through this life, clearly showing me the difference, between doing right from wrong, or simply remaining cold and indifferent.
 
 Last but not least, I Give Thanks for the distinctive blessing of awakening with the rebirth of each day, and for the gift that God has bestowed upon me, allowing me to be born and live till this hour of today.®
