At last the rains have come…
May the sun bring you new energy by day,
May the moon softly restore you by night,

All the days of your life

the message Silence, they say, is the voice of complicity. But silence is impossible. Silence screams. Silence is a message, just as doing nothing is an act. Let who you are ring out and resonate in every word and every deed. Yes, become who you are. There’s no sidestepping your own being or your own…

What a beautiful blessing and apt. 🙂
Thanks so much Trich, I recently came across the blessing and it was in my mind yesterday so I thought I would share it.

Thanks for popping by to visit 🙂
