Blessings to seek and give

(Nimue)

May you have the freedom to love who and what you love. Without threat without ridicule. May you have the integrity not to deny anyone else the things and people they love, even when that love makes no sense to you.

May you be true to yourself, and may your values never conflict painfully with each other. May you never be obliged to pick the lesser evil and may you be able to stand by your truth without fear. May you uphold the integrity and dignity of others.

May respect be shown to you, and respect shown by you. May life bring you what you deserve, and may you have the courage to speak up in face of that which does not merit respect. Life is worthy of respect, but baseless authority is not.

May you find your best self today and hereafter. May you see the good you can do in the world and be moved by your own potential. May you know your own goodness and strength and be blessed with the wisdom to deploy those qualities effectively.

May your life be free from bitterness, may your heart be open and full of kindness. May the beauties present in the world reveal themselves to you day by day, and may you invite the best in others and in life.

The world is greatly in need of blessings, but we have the scope within us to become blessings. Day by day, we can bless whatever we encounter with the best that we have to bring.
