A Christmas Night Blessing

May your life be like a
wildflower,
growing freely in the
beauty
and joy of each day.
— Native American Proverb

This blessing is one of a collection of poems and sayings included in a book I purchased many years ago when my sons were small – A Grateful Heart: Daily Blessings for the Evening Meal from Buddha to the Beatles. There was a time when we would randomly choose a blessing from this book to say before our evening meal. It was my way of trying to bring some sense of spirituality into our lives even though we were not part of a specific religious community.

Peace be with you….
