Rosemary’s Blessing 

Life is short …

Break the rules,

Forgive quickly,

Kiss slowly,

Love truly,

Laugh uncontrollably,

And never regret anything that made you smile.

Rosemary’s Blessing of The Week 

 

Humankind, full of all creative possibilities,

is God’s work.

Humankind alone is called to assist God.

Humankind is called to co-create.

With nature’s help,

humankind can set into creation all that is necessary and life-sustaining.

In the raging storm and in the quiet breeze,

In the loving whisper, and in the angry cry,

And may the God of invitations, surprises, and mysteries

Bless you and guide you always.
