Irish Blessing



Although my father's mother, my Granna Settle, was of partial Irish ancestry (her maiden name was Frances Flinn), I'm not a big believer in the "Luck of the Irish." In fact, years ago I intentionally stopped using the word "lucky," substituting "blessed," instead. So here is an old Irish blessing for you on St. Patrick's Day:

May love and laughter light your days,
and warm your heart and home.
May good and faithful friends be yours,
wherever you may roam.
May peace and plenty bless your world
with joy that long endures.
May all life's passing seasons
bring the best to you and yours!
