Rosemary’s Blessing

May today there be peace within. May you trust that you are exactly where you are meant to be.

 May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith in yourself and others.

 May you use the gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you.

 May you be content with yourself just the way you are.

 Let this knowledge settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love. It is there for each and every one of us.

Saint Terese of Liseaux

Rosemary’s Blessing of The Week

 

Bless the Journey

 

May you see the way wherever the journey takes you, sailing safely over rough water and weathering the waves’ dips and crests

May you find treasure in Earth’s infinite variety, beauty and surprise

May you hear the ocean’s music in every shell you hold to your ear

May your boat fill with insight, laughter, generosity and love

as you discover new landscapes and explore the wide expanse of memory.

Navigator’s Blessing, by littlegoldboat

and help us to strive so that this same freedom

may be experienced by everyone in our country,
