Make a list of all the things we’ve done to one another.
Make a list of the 7 deadly sins of contemporary life.
Make a list of all the dreams that became nightmares.
Make a list of all the dead in all the wars.
Make a list of all who killed them.
Make a grocery list for the poorest of the poor.
Make a list of all the qualities of a son (a Son) of God.
Make a list of every surrender.
Make a list of every loving word that came too late.
Make a list of all the sacrileges.
Make a list of all the things money can’t buy.
Make a list of all the things that make us human.
Make a list of every stain on that.
Make a list of all the prophets.
Make a list of all their warnings.
Make a list of things that bring you closer to yourself.
Make a list of everyone who starved to death today.
Make a list of every empty promise.
Make a list of every message from your gut.
Make a list of every child who never smiled.
Make a list of all the places you left integrity behind.
Make a list of all the ways to kill your spirit.
Make a list of all the saints who pray for you.
Make a list of all the things that truly bring you awe.
Make a list of all the risks you didn’t take.

Make a list of everyone wise enough to get your attention.
Make a list of everyone who surprised you by their kindness.
Make a list of everyone who makes you laugh.
Make a list of everyone you can count on no matter what.
