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

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

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

And may God bless you with the foolishness to think that you can make a difference in the world, so that you will do the things which others tell you cannot be done.

This was posted in a goodly human spirit, so my predelictions against faith belief are irrelevant, given that this is mostly an advocation of a humanistic impulse .... As a secular humanist, I cannot wrong anyone for that ....

WHATEVER get's the work of CARING for humanity done is ok, as long as the swords and torches are left at home .....

3. A truly wonderful blessing.
May God bless you with knowledge of the world as it really is, a vision of what it can be, and the energy to exchange one for the other.
