    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.

    Mother Teresa

    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 in a cloud of smoke,

    Thoroughly used up,

    Totally worn out,

    And loudly proclaiming

    —WOW—What a Ride!

    Rosemary's Blessing:

    A Summer Blessing

    May you walk with God
    This summer
    In whatever you do
    Wherever you go

    Walking with God means…
    Walking with honesty
    And with courage,
    Walking with love
    And respect
    And concern for the feelings of others

    May you talk to God
    This summer
    And every day and
    In every situation

    Talking with God means…
    Praying words of praise
    For the beauty of creation
    Saying prayers of thanks
    For friends and good times,
    Asking God's help
    In all your decisions
    Expressing sorrow
    When you have failed

    May you talk with God
    Every day. Amen.

    Rosemary's Blessing:

    I just finished a marvelous book, The Last Green Valley by Mark Sullivan.  It is the story of a young couple and 2 young sons making their way from the Ukraine westward at the end of WWII.

    At the end of the mother’s life many years later when she was 80+ years old a friend asked the woman, Adeline to describe the most important things she learned over the course of her long and remarkable life.

    Adeline thought about that for a little while before saying, “Don’t chew on the bad things that happen to you, dear.  Try to see the beauty in every cruelty. It sets you free.  Forgive hurt if you want to heal a broken heart.  Try to be grateful for every setback or tragedy, because by living through them, you become stronger.  I see the hand of God in that.”
