As much as wars and conflicts can be provoked, it can as much be prevented ... Upon us that have it within our abilities to prevent atrocities and ignore such, are as much responsible for the dead and chaos war leaves behind ... It is easy to hate, but it takes courage to forgive and love ... Bright Blessings and let music just be a mere effort on a road of recovery and peace ... 14/88
Irish Blessings ...
May the blessings of light be on you — light without and light within ...
May the blessed sunshine shine on you and warm your heart until it glows like a great peat fire — so that the stranger may come and warm himself, and also a friend ...
And may the light shine out of the two eyes of you, like a candle set in two windows of a house, bidding the wanderer to come in out of the storm ...
May the blessing of the Rain be on you—the soft, sweet rain ...
May it fall upon your spirit, so that all the flowers may spring up, and shed their sweetness on the air ...
And may the blessing of the Great Rains be on you: may they beat upon your spirits and wash it fair and clean and leave there many a shining pool, where the blue heaven shines reflected—and sometimes a star ...
And may the blessing of the Earth be on you — the great round earth ...
May you ever have a kindly greeting for those you pass, as you're going along the roads ...
May the earth be soft under you ... When you lie out upon it, tired at the end of the day ... And may it rest easily over you, when at last you be out under it ... May it rest so lightly over you that your soul may be quickly through it, and up, and off, and on its way to God ...
May you treasure wisely this jewelled, gilded time and cherish each day as an extra grace ...
Whose heedless loss would be a tragic crime in today's tasks may you find God's tender face ....
May you know that to miss love's smallest chance is a lost opportunity, a senseless waste ...
May you see need in every anxious glance ...
May you sort out of the dull and commonplace ...
An invitation to God's merry, manic dance ...
And may the Lord of the dance bless you ...
As he invites you to the dance of the hallowed present ...
Blessed Be ...
