Rosemary’s Blessing of The Week 

But after everything, and even when the skies turn scarlet and threatening, I still believe that if we are lucky enough to be alive, we must give thanks for the miracle of every moment of every day, no matter how flawed.  And we must have faith in God, and in the Universe, and in a better tomorrow even if that faith is not always deserved.

Beneath a Scarlet Sky by Mark Sullivan

Rosemary’s Blessing  

Revel in a friendly smile,

Grasp the offered hand, warm and strong,

And with your best love be reconciled.

 Watch the clouds march across the sky

As you come from your daily labor,

Your heart open for surprise

 And may the God of surprises

Who filled the world with wonder

Bless you, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

Rosemary’s Blessing:

To laugh often and much;
To win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children;
To earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends;
To appreciate beauty;
To find the best in others;
To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition;
To know even one life has breathed easier because you lived.
This is to have succeeded.

Success – Ralph Waldo Emerson
