    Rosemary's Blessing: 

    Dear Lord, please give me

    A few friends who understand me and remain my friends;

    A work to do which has real value,
    without which the world would be the poorer;

    A mind unafraid to travel, even though the trail be not blazed; 

    A sense of humor;

    Time for quiet, silent meditation;   

    The patience to wait for the coming of these things, Amen.

    Rosemary’s Blessing

     Christ has no body now on earth but yours,

          no hands but yours,

          no feet but yours,

     Yours are the eyes through which Christ’s

          compassion is to look out to the world,

     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.

     From a prayer by Teresa of Avila (1515–1582)
