To Come Home to Yourself

By John O’Donohue 

May all that is unforgiven in you Be released.
May your fears yield Their deepest tranquillities.
May all that is unlived in you blossom into a future graced with love.

an Irish Blessing

This hung in my mother’s kitchen and now graces mine each St. Patty’s day~

May those that love us, love us;

and those that don’t love us,

may God turn their hearts;

and if he doesn’t turn their hearts,

may he turn their ankles

so we’ll know them by their limping.
