i thought about...

[2eclipse]

only posting this in vale797's journal as a response to his religious thing. but then i thought...this is a really lovely thing that everyone should know about.
so here it is:



May God bless you with discomfort at easy answers, half truths, and superficial relationships, so that you may live deep within your heart.
Amen

May God bless you with anger at injustice, oppression, and exploitation of people, so that you may work for justice, freedom, and peace.
Amen

May God bless you with tears to shed for those who suffer from pain, rejection, starvation, and war, so that you may reach out your hand to comfort them and to turn their pain into joy.
Amen

And may God bless you with enough foolishness to believe that you can make a difference in this world, so that you can do what others claim cannot be done.
Amen

- Benediction of St. Francis
