Rosemary's Blessing: 

May the blessing of light be upon you,

Light on the outside, Light on the inside.
With God's sunlight shining on you,
May your heart glow with warmth,
Like a turf fire that welcomes friends and strangers alike.

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)

Life is short …

Break the rules,

 Laugh uncontrollably,
