An Irish Blessing for the New Year
May the raindrops fall lightly on your brow.
May the soft winds freshen your spirit.
May the sunshine brighten your heart.
May the burdens of the day rest lightly upon you.
And may God enfold you in the mantle of His love.

My prayer and hope for you, my faithful readers, for this new year and beyond.

Sweeeeet. I love that blessing. And, seeing that photo before I scrolled to the photo credit, my mind said, “I remember taking that photo! That smile.” That was a fun day filled with lots of “Karen Joy”
Thanks again, Heidi, for catching me at my best that day. What a dear friend you are.
Karen, thank you for the beautiful Irish Blessing. Hope you have a safe and healthy 2021.
The same to you, Mary. I am keeping in touch with Jack and he with me. He too, is well, and hoping we all stay that way.
