East, winds of knowledge,
Thank you for the gifts of wit, honesty, and the mind.
South, fires of creativity,
Thank you for the gifts of courage, passion, and the soul.
West, waters of empathy,
Thank you for the gifts of kindness, intuition, and the heart.
North, cornerstone of strength,
Thank you for the gifts of patience, endurance, and the body.
(I wrote this for the beginning of my daily morning devotional ritual. The three 'gifts' for each element are traits I need to work on, like patience, or traits that I am strong in but still like to encourage, like honesty. If you use this quarter call in your own rites, I suggest changing the 'gifts' to suit your own personality and goals.)
