Blessings

Anyone can give a blessing… so long as it’s done with sincerity and goodwill. A blessing is a caring offer of spiritual support. We can bless anything – a person, place, animal or our planet. The more loving the blessing the better. Here’s a selection of blessings … including one for yourself. Blessing oneself is definitely a good thing.

A Blessing for the Year End

Think of the life and lives
That strolled through those days
Captured in the book
Retold over twelve months

There was one memory 
Surprising, kind or sweet –
A good spark
Destined to light the future

And you can kindle it
Blow gently on the flame
Shelter it, wish it well
So we can warm ourselves
With that thought.

Good or bad
Happy or sad
Seek and find
A jewel of a thought
A radiant memory

There is always a bookmark
For the page
That takes you 
To that recollection

Such joyful messages
Reside in the soul

Which is why
We look ahead
Face the unknown
And offer love 
And heartfelt thanks
At the end of the year
Blessing ourselves
And the days passed
