Rosemary's Blessing: 

May the God of the dawn awaken you
May the God of sunrise stir you up
May the God of morning bless your work
May the God of noon renew your strength
May the God of sunset bring you home
May the God of dusk soothe your soul
May the God of night bring you rest.

    Rosemary's Blessing: 

    A Prayer For Growing Old Gracefully

     Lord, Thou knowest better than I myself that I am growing older and will someday be old. Keep me from the fatal habit of thinking I must say something on every subject and on every occasion.

    Release me from craving to straighten out everybody's affairs. Make me thoughtful but not moody; helpful but not bossy. With my vast store of wisdom, it seems a pity not to use it all; but Thou knowest, Lord, that I want a few friends at the end. Keep my mind free from the recital of endless details; give me wings to get to the point. Seal my lips on my aches and pains; they are increasing, and love of rehearsing them is becoming sweeter as the years go by.

    I dare not ask for improved memory, but for a growing humility and a lessening cock-sureness when my memory seems to clash with the memories of others. Teach me the glorious lesson that occasionally I may be mistaken.

    Keep me reasonably sweet, for a sour old person is one of the crowning works of the devil. Give me the ability to see good things in unexpected places and talents in unexpected people; and give me, O Lord, the grace to tell them so.

    Amen.

    Yours are the feet with which Christ is to
    go about doing good,
    Yours are the hands, with which Christ is to
    bless all people now.

    Rosemary's Blessing: 

    Here is the quirky prayer said to be recited each day by Pope Francis and written by St. Thomas Moore reminding us to live joyfully.  It is said Thomas Moore was known for his humor and was also a man not appreciated during his lifetime.

     

    Prayer to live Joyfully:

    Grant me, O Lord good digestion and also something to digest.

    Grant me,O Lord a healthy body, and the necessary good humor to maintain it.

    Grant me a simple soul that knows no boredom, grumblings, sighs or laments.

    Grant me, O Lord, a sense of humor.

    Allow me grace to be able to take a joke–to discover in life a bit of Joy and to be able to share it with others.

    Amen
