Happy St. Patrick's Day
Being a Higgins through and through on my dear mither's side, I canno' let a St. Paddy's Day come and go wi'out a bit of celebratin'!
T he Irish in me inclines me to break me fast bright an' early every mornin'
Right after I might give this wee blessing to start me day!
Said in the morning when rising...
Christ be with me,
be after me,
be before me,
and be at my right and left hand.
May everything I do be for Christ
Amen!
An Old Irish Blessing
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!
God bless ye, one and all, who enter in today!
And the saints be with ye, my girl. I'm trying to sound Irish... failing miserably. Love the post. I have a drop or two of Irish blood in me veins, meself.
