Rosemary's Blessing

 May you be blessed with the gift of humility

To know who you are,

To appreciate your strengths and talents,

To be aware of your shortcomings and limitations,

And most especially…

To be grateful each day for life.

Rosemary's Blessing of The Week:

May an abundance of gratitude burst forth in our minds and hearts as we remember all the blessings in our life.
 

May we slow our hurried pace these days so we can be aware of, and enjoy, what we can too easily take for granted.
 

May we always be open, willing and ready to share our blessings with others and never forget the God who loves us lavishly and unconditionally.
 

And  may we remember that our thanksgiving is incomplete until we pay it forward by doing for others what they cannot do for themselves.
 

Amen.

From a prayer by Sr. Jean Amore CSJ,  Sacred Heart Academy,  Hempstead, N.Y.

Rosemary's Blessing

I, God, am in your midst.

Whoever knows me can never fall.

Not in the heights, nor the depths, nor in the breadths.

Bulletin 5 on the Lumbar Stenosis event:

1. Surgery at Dallas Presby yesterday to take the pinch off of my spinal nerve which sent pain from my derriere all the way to my right foot & arch.
2. the only pain now comes from the incision.  This was expected to be pretty significant.  Remedy: 2 pain pills.  Result: no pain, but significant dizziness.  I thought I had downed 2 shots of Jack Daniels.

Rosemary’s Blessing:

People are often unreasonable and self-centered. Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.
If you are honest, people may cheat you. Be honest anyway.
If you find happiness, people may be jealous. Be happy anyway.
The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have and it may never be enough. Give your best anyway.
For you see, in the end, it is between you and God. It was never between you and them anyway.
