Rosemary's Blessing of  The Week: 

 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)

Rosemary's Blessing

 Life is not a journey to the grave

With the intention of arriving safely

In a pretty and well preserved body,

But rather to skid in broadside,

Thoroughly used up,

Totally worn out,

And loudly proclaiming

—WOW—What a Ride!

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.

1. $700 for Karina in Mexico.  This includes donations targeted especially for Karina in Cuernavaca, Mexico.  I will take this to her Jan. 28, when I visit Mexico to see how she is doing after the death of her mother recently.  She had panicked a bit, especially that she might get thrown out of her little garage.  She is the woman who had polio as a young girl and is crippled.  We have supported the two of them for over 20 years.
