And anyone that cannot get along with me.
Bless the person who has hurt me deeply
and anyone that I have hurt.
Bless the person that I cannot forgive

Grant me the grace to live as a person of peace today
and to treat all I meet today with dignity.

In connection with our First Blessing of The Men:

 

Life is a circle; it's beginning is its end,

Going on forever, beginning when time began.

 

Enclosed within the circle is every thought of love, 

Gliding on the winds of time, on the wings of a dove.

 

In the center of the circle is the hardened core of hate,

Bringing upon the wars of the world and may someday bring its fate.

 

But then life is a circle; it's beginning is it's end,

Going on forever beginning when time began.

 

 Life is a circle; it's beginning is it's end,

As it was in the beginning it shall be again.

Rosemary’s Blessing of The Week

 

May you live a long life full of gladness and health,
With a pocket full of gold as the least of your wealth.
May the dreams you hold dearest be those which come true,
The kindness you spread keep returning to you.
May the friendships you make be those which endure,
And all of your grey clouds be small ones for sure.
And trusting in Him to Whom we all pray,
May a song fill your heart every step of the way.

Grace E. Easley
