[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was raised Presbyterian, but now consider myself more so spiritual. I begin with the prayer I used to say before bed - "Now I lay me down to sleep" and basically ask that God or whoever is out there protect me when I die (morbid, I suppose, but that's how i start). I then go down a sort of "check list" of people I pray for - a daughter that my wife lost at 17 weeks who I like to believe is somewhere watching over us. I pray that she is protected, that she knows she is loved, and that she knows we'll be with her again one day. I pray for our DS - that he continues to thrive, and that we are able to be the parents he needs for us to be to teach him kindness and courage. I pray for my wife, and the unborn child she is carrying. I pray for my parents - my mother who has Alzheimer's, and my father who takes care of her. I send out a universal prayer for anyone who is suffering or struggling with their own battle. And I pray for myself - that I can be a strong and loving partner, parent, daughter, teacher, and friend.

That's it. I say this prayer every night before bed. [/quote]

That's beautiful, pp.[/quote]
